Overview
- Coca-Cola will exit the frozen can category and end Minute Maid frozen concentrates in the first quarter of 2026, with remaining inventory sold until it runs out.
- The discontinued items include frozen orange juice (original, pulp free, country style) as well as lemonade, pink lemonade, raspberry lemonade and limeade.
- The company frames the decision as a portfolio refocus toward ready-to-drink juices, zero-sugar options and premium lines such as Fairlife.
- Market data underscore the shift, with NIQ reporting nearly an 8% drop in frozen beverage sales in the 52 weeks ending Jan. 24.
- Introduced in 1946, the frozen concentrate line departs with considerable nostalgia, while Minute Maid continues refrigerated and shelf-stable juices.
