Giving expired cooldrinks to the poor

Q: Is it ethical to give expired cooldrinks to the less fortunate amongst our society although the manufaturer says that it is just a guideline.

A: As long as you are quite clear that there are no harmful effects it is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
