The Snapple glass bottles are a packaging style that many consumers will recognize from the 90s but have been discontinued in recent years. The brand has announced that it will be reviving its classic glass-made packaging for a limited time as a way to pay homage to its past, but also speak to consumer nostalgia. The packaging update will see the brand shifting to glass-made bottles for a limited time with their classic metal lids, while its 100% recycled plastic style will still be on offer.
The Snapple glass bottles will be priced at $3.99 each and will only be on offer for a limited time in New York. The product responds to the popularity of 90s-themed nostalgia as consumers continue to react positively to items that are themed with the decade in mind.
