The primary difference is sugar. Club soda is basically neutral. Carbonation only, really. Either of the two soft drinks you mentioned are loaded with sweetener, corn syrup. The lemon or ginger flavor is secondary. The primary contribution is the sweetness. It's like mixing whatever drink you were going to mix, then adding 6-8 teaspoons of sugar to it.
So if it's an option, you could try adding as much sour flavor (any limes you might have) as you can to rebalance it.
How'd it work out? Curious to hear.
