Coke's Minute Maid brand adding smaller packages

Minute Maid, a Coca-Cola Co. brand, announced that in January 2010 it will introduce smaller, single-serve sizes for three varieties of its enhanced juice and juice drink line.

The new 12-ounce bottles will be offered in pomegranate blueberry, pomegranate lemonade and strawberry kiwi. These flavors are currently offered in 59-ounce bottles.

In a press release issued Thursday, Mike Saint John, president of the Minute Maid Business Unit, said Minute Maid wanted to meet the needs of health-conscious consumers by providing new, convenient packaging of popular flavors.
