Hooray for two of my favorite things in the world—Coke and McDonald's! This year, they've partnered once again to offer the 2015 Coca-Cola Glass Collection. That's the drinking glasses up there. I don't know if this news will actually excite you, because, you know, baso, but we started collecting these glasses with the Olympics 2008 collection and, well, we like collecting things! 

New Coca-Cola glasses to add to my collection! We actually really do drink from Coke glasses, for many years now. I think the Olympics collection started it. Thanks for the complete set, McDonald's and Coca-Cola! We are a Coke family! 😊 Will blog about how you can get your own Come glasses tonight! 😊

Now on its 8th year, the 2015 Coca-Cola Glasses is also called the Coca-Cola Signature Glass Collection because this is inspired by the evolution of the iconic Coca-Cola contour bottle. Even the green tinge is because the first bottles of Coke were greenish! Why? The first bottles were made by the Root Glass Company (yes, I did some research for you!). Now glass is basically melted sand and Root got its sand "from 160 acres that Root purchased west of Greencastle in the Fern Cliffs area of Putnum County, Indiana." I like how that sounds like a setting for a good romance story! Anyway, this sand had copper and other minerals which created that distinct green tinge. Instead of thinking of that as a bad thing, Coke thought, "Hey, it can be our signature glass color, just like our sexy contoured bottle!" Coke didn't say that exactly. I did. But you know what I mean!

The Coca-Cola Signature Glass Collection is available at all McDonald’s restaurants nationwide now. As in now na! To collect the limited-edition glasses, all you need to do is add P29 to any McDonald’s meal and you get one glass. There are six designs to collect, and each glass is embossed with the Coca-Cola logo. Each is also date-stamped with 1899, 1916, 1955, 1961, 1994, and 2015. So six glasses times P29... That's just P174 total! Well, on top of your meal, of course!

Collect all six designs only at McDonald’s via Dine-In, Drive-Thru, or McDelivery via 86-2-86, www.mcdelivery.com.ph, or the McDo PH app, all day, including breakfast hours. Have fun collecting... and drinking Coke!

Share your collection at McDonald’s official Facebook page, or by tagging @McDo_PH on Twitter and Instagram.
