Coca-Cola's popular 7.5-oz mini cans are coming to convenience stores as single-serve options for the first time starting January 1, 2026. The new single-serve option joins three other package sizes, creating more choices for different moments throughout your day.
We're giving you a new way to enjoy your favorite beverages with the debut of the popular 7.5-oz mini can as a single-serve option in convenience stores nationwide, beginning Jan. 1. Mini cans have been a favorite in grocery aisles for more than a decade, but until now were only sold in multipacks.
"People want more ways to enjoy Coca-Cola on their terms - whether that's a smaller portion, a favorite classic or something new to try," said Joel Bishop, President, Commercial Leadership, North America Operating Unit, The Coca-Cola Company. "Convenience stores are where many of today's quick decisions happen, and the cold vault plays a big role in those moments. By introducing mini cans into that space, we're giving you more choice and making Coca-Cola easier to enjoy and more accessible for the next generation."
The lineup includes Coca-Cola Original Taste, Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Coca-Cola Cherry, Sprite, and Fanta Orange as core options. Seasonal flavors will rotate in-like Sprite Winter Spiced Cranberry, which mixes the lemon-lime base with warming spices and tart cranberry.
The big addition is Coca-Cola Cherry Float, a new limited-time flavor, debuting across all package types in February 2026. It will be available in mini can singles beginning in April.
At a suggested retail price of $1.29, the 7.5-oz mini can single-serve allows for smaller portion sizes and packaging options that fit changing habits. It's also the perfect trial size for new innovative flavors.
Four distinct package sizes now anchor our convenience store lineup: the 7.5-oz mini can, 16-oz can, 20-oz bottle, and 24-oz bottle. Each one's designed to meet you where you are and provide more choice across different occasions, whether you're making a quick stop at the pump or a grab-and-go purchase in-store.
Mini cans have already demonstrated their impact in grocery and mass retail. Today, mini cans account for more than 9% of sparkling soft drink mix in large stores. This expansion is part of our broader strategy to evolve with people's needs, energize convenience retail and drive growth across the sparkling category.
