Officials from the fast-food chain announced their restaurants in the tri-state area will offer a cold drink sleeve featuring the Penguins logo for a limited time. Visitors can purchase the co-branded sleeve, which fits most of the restaurant's large-size cold drinks, for $6 through the McDonald's mobile app or in-store while supplies last.

As of Oct. 4, representatives for the fast-food chain said every McDonald's location in Beaver County has reported having supplies of the Penguins' cold sleeves available. In a statement to the Times, a spokesperson said there is a "steady supply of the sleeves so far."
