Overview
- Coca-Cola will sell the mini cans as single-serve items at a suggested $1.29, each at about 90 calories compared with 240 calories in a 20-ounce bottle.
- Initial offerings include Coca-Cola Original, Coke Zero Sugar, Cherry Coke, Sprite and Fanta, with Diet Coke available in regions where it is most popular.
- The company describes the timing as early next year, while some coverage reports a Jan. 1, 2026 start for convenience-store single-serve distribution.
- The move shifts a long-standing grocery multipack format into convenience-store refrigerators to spur impulse purchases and trial.
- Coca-Cola also plans U.S. glass bottles sweetened with cane sugar later this year, as recent domestic sales gains have leaned more on pricing than on volume with a noted pullback among Hispanic consumers.
