There will be 2,000 lucky winners and one will get a custom Pepsi Spout inspired by the iconic IHOP syrup pitchers.

The indulgent cola is one of many new releases from Pepsi, including PEPSI X PEEPS, Pepsi Apple Pie, and Pepsi x Cracker Jack. Like these previous releases, this new product comes in a unique 12-ounce can.
