Thanks for stopping by, this giveaway is now closed. Congrats to Karen, Jennifer, Nadia, Joseph and Sondra!
My husband drinks a. lot. of. Coca Cola. As in, he alone could probably keep the company in business. Last week, I had an opportunity to test out their brand new, upscale, aluminum bottles at a swanky rooftop lounge in Los Angeles (if it were daytime, I would have had gorgeous views of the ocean). You won’t find these bottles just anywhere. They are strategically placed in upscale hotels and restaurants in cities like New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Las Vegas, and San Francisco. Notable Los Angeles placement includes the SLS Hotel, SBE Group, and The London West Hollywood. I personally like the fact that they’re unbreakable and contain 8.5 ounces of product (as opposed to 12). Because they’re aluminum, they stay cold longer. And unlike aluminum cans, they’re resealable (but I doubt you won’t finish one!). The bottle has a certain retro look and feel and it reminds me of those old Coca Cola bottles from back in the day.
A few of us had an opportunity to speak with the vice president and region manager for the company. It was neat to be able to give him our feedback directly. I told him that I could see these bottles at Disneyland…maybe in one of their hotels. They’re definitely not appropriate for all places and situations, particularly because they cost $3.00 a bottle. But I definitely see them sold in places where the young and hip congregate.
I’m certain you’ve heard of people using a can of Coca Cola in a cake recipe. But have you ever heard of a Coca Cola Meat Balls Recipe? Well, that was one of the h’orderves served at the event. And I have the recipe just for you!
10# ground beef
1 diced onion
3 cloves garlic minced
3 12oz cans Coca Cola
¼ c dry oregano
1 bu. Basil chopped
1 tsp. chili flakes
1 tsp. chopped thyme
1 cup of panko bread crumbs
2 eggs
S/p tt
Mixed all ingredients together. Shape into 2” balls and bake at 400 for 15 minutes and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Win It! FIVE of you will win “dressed up” versions of Coca Cola, Diet Coca Cola, and Coca Cola Zero. Simply leave me a comment with your favorite Coca Cola product!

I’ve got you on my reader. By the way, these bottles, did they produce them with a particular goal in mind? I’m sure they did, but do they only offer them in upscale sorts of hotels or are they also intended as collector items? I personally really like the idea of an unbreakable container. I hate plastic, and glass is second best. But, aluminum would be the best by far if they could bring the cost down.
My favorite Coca-Cola product is definitely Diet Coke. It is hands down my weekly treat! Tahnk you for the chance!

I really love regular coke, or vault!
I love Diet Coke and caffeine free diet coke was great while I was pregnant.
I love the way the classic coke bottle fits in.
Great style
Cherry Coke Zero, bought two twelve packs today.
Go to bed each evening with Sprite Zero, put cherry juice and 3 cherries in it, over ice.
Like almost any flavor of PowerAde
Diet Coke is my favorite!
I used to drink regular coke until I found out that I have diabetes. I now drink Zero coke since it has no sugar or calories and love it! I don’t drink coffee so coke is my caffeine.
I subscribe.
My beverage of choice right now is either Coca-Cola, which is pretty commonly available or Vault, which is not as commonly available on fountains. I’ve been buying 12oz bottles of Coke made in Mexico at Sam’s Club, because it uses real sugar instead of HFCS. I’d like to have the aluminum bottles for my mom; she collects Coke memorabilia.
