Pepsi is releasing Limited-Edition “Share a Pepsi” Bottles featuring Popular Eats like Burgers, Hot Dogs, Wings, and More - Because Nothing Brings Out the Best in Your Favorite Food Like an Ice-Cold Pepsi

PURCHASE, N.Y. (June 12, 2025) – This summer, why share a cola with some “dude” or “pal” when you can enjoy an even better pairing when you “Share a Pepsi” with your favorite food? Whether at the ballpark, poolside, or gathered around the grill, limited-edition “Share a Pepsi” bottles are now here to remind fans how PEPSI® enhances the flavor of popular foods like burgers and carne asada to pizza, hot dogs, tamales, and wings. Because when it comes to flavor, Pepsi isn’t just an option; it’s the essential sip to help savor every bite – making Pepsi and summer eats this season’s hottest pair.

Pepsi knows that the best way to share a cola is with a taco, not a Tom, and with a pizza, not a Paige.  With its unique flavor and sweetness, balanced with a refreshingly crisp fizz, Pepsi is the perfect accompaniment to cut through delectable eats. “Share a Pepsi” encourages fans to savor the bold flavors of Pepsi and their favorite foods first, then bring friends and family together - because unforgettable taste creates lasting memories.

Starting today, Pepsi is dishing out thousands of limited-edition 20 oz. “Share a Pepsi” bottles, giving fans the chance to grab one featuring their favorite eats. The collection spotlights burgers, hot dogs, pizza, tacos, and subs, to go with the better tasting zero sugar cola, Pepsi® Zero Sugar. Whether you’re just discovering Pepsi Zero Sugar for the first time or already a fan, it’s time to join the growing majority of consumers picking Pepsi Zero Sugar during The Pepsi Challenge as it travels across the U.S. now through the fall.

How fans can try to score a custom “Share a Pepsi” bottle:

·       Social Giveaway: Fans have a chance to get a FREE “Share a Pepsi” 20 oz. Pepsi Zero Sugar bottle by sharing which foods they’d #ShareAPepsi with on select @Pepsi social posts.

·       PEPSI® DROPS: Fans can visit the PEPSI® DROPS platform on pepsi.com to enter for a chance to score a 20 oz. “Share a Pepsi” bottle now through June 30. Winners will be selected based on all qualifying entries.

·       EEEEEATSCON® LA: Fans attending the food festival from June 28—29 can stop by the Pepsi activation, play a game, and receive a complimentary “Share a Pepsi” bottle while supplies last.  

Plus, today only, fans can unlock $5 OFF their DoorDash order by purchasing two Pepsi-Cola® beverages (aw, besties!) alongside their order. Terms apply.

“At Pepsi, we never leave taste on the table, and we want to make sure fans aren’t missing out either,” said Gustavo Reyna, VP of Marketing – Pepsi. “Real flavor magic happens when Pepsi meets great food, elevating every bite with bold refreshment. That’s why our limited-edition ‘Share a Pepsi’ bottles showcase fan-favorite grill classics, inspiring everyone to grab their go-to dish and enjoy it with an ice-cold Pepsi.”

The campaign will come to life through out-of-home and radio placements in select markets including New York City, Los Angeles, Houston, and Dallas, reminding fans everywhere Food Deserves Pepsi™. From towering billboards to flavor-packed airwaves, Pepsi is toasting the meals that make summer unforgettable — and the bold, refreshing flavor that makes every bite taste better.

To stay current on the latest from “Food Deserves Pepsi: Share a Pepsi,” follow Pepsi on Instagram, Facebook, X, and YouTube (@Pepsi).

Food Deserves Pepsi™

“Share a Pepsi” is the latest iteration of the brand’s Food Deserves Pepsi™ platform, which launched in 2024 with disruptive campaigns like BBQ Crashers/Carne Asada Merece Pepsi, Pepsi Chase Cars and Undercover Cups featuring the brand’s fleet of “blue jumpsuits.” This summer, the brand continues to build momentum with a fresh suite of national television spots spotlighting the bold pairing of Pepsi and grilled favorites.

More than just a tagline, Food Deserves Pepsi™/ Tu Comida Merece Pepsi™ is a consistent reminder to consumers that a meal without Pepsi is leaving taste on the table. With its unique flavor and sweetness, balanced with a refreshingly crisp fizz, Pepsi is crafted to cut through rich, flavorful foods and elevate every bite. Whether it’s burgers, tacos, ribs, pizza, or more, the message is clear: Food Deserves Pepsi™.
