I want to ask the following question:
Do both A and B refer to C?
Is this the right way to do so? I don't know why but it sounds a little unnatural to me.
Is there another way?
Thank you.

It is clear and sounds natural to me.
Do A and B refer to C?
Has the same meaning, but the both would help make the logical relationships clear.
Some people, especially in speech, and especially in a casual register, would say
Do A and B both refer to C?
But most people would prefer your wording, especially in writing, and certainly in formal discourse.
