Virgin Cola captured the bold ambition of the 1990s, when a familiar global name set out to challenge established soft-drink brands. Launched in the United Kingdom in 1994, the drink soon appeared in supermarkets and on Virgin Atlantic flights. Its story includes the distinctive “Pammy” bottle, introduced in 1996, and a changing international reach that ended as production wound down in the Philippines and Bangladesh. A fitting piece for collectors of beverage branding and corporate history.
Virgin Cola was a carbonated soft drink conceived by Richard Branson and launched in 1994 through Virgin Group and Cott Beverage Corporation. The venture paired Virgin’s international brand ambitions with Cott’s experience bottling own-label drinks, aiming to challenge established cola brands. It first reached consumers in the United Kingdom, including through Virgin Atlantic flights, Virgin Trains shops and Virgin Cinemas, before a supermarket distribution agreement with Tesco in 1994. From 1996, its 500 ml bottles were promoted as “The Pammy,” with a shape inspired by Pamela Anderson. The brand expanded into Europe and other regions, and launched in the United States in 1998. Its UK bottling license moved from Cott to Princes Soft Drinks and, in August 2007, to Silver Spring. Virgin Cola left the US market in 2001. UK sales ended in 2009 after Asda, its last major stocker, stopped carrying it. Production also ended in the Philippines in 2013 and Bangladesh in 2014, where Global Beverage Company Limited was its final international licensee. With production discontinued, the brand ceased to exist as a beverage.

A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
