The agency said a “foreign object (glass)” had been found. The recall was labelled ClassII, which the agency defines as having “a lower chance of causing major injuries or death, but where there is still the possibility of serious enough adverse events to have irreversible consequences”.

It was not immediately clear whether any injuries have been reported.

In a statement to ABC News, PepsiCo said the drinks were not sold at Starbucks stores and were being removed from shelves across the country.
