SAN ANTONIO \u2014 Forget carrying around a giant cup of Bill Miller iced tea. Now you can wear one in your hair.<\/p>\n
Bill Miller Bar-B-Q has unveiled its latest piece of merchandise, and it may be one of the most San Antonio accessories yet \u2014 an iced tea claw clip designed to look like a miniature cup of the restaurant’s famous tea.<\/p>\n
We took your favorite drink and made it an accessory!” Bill Miller announced on Instagram.<\/p>\n
The clip, complete with the familiar Bill Miller logo, iced tea and what appear to be tiny ice cubes on top, sells for $7 and is available in stores and online while supplies last.<\/p>\n
And judging by the reaction online, “while supplies last” might be the important part.<\/p>\n
I need one in my life,” Jim Jiron wrote on Facebook.<\/p>\n
Teresa Griego-Chavez was already ahead of him.<\/p>\n
“Got mine yesterday! Thanks to my husband,” she wrote.<\/p>\n
Nicky Franklin was another early buyer, writing, “I got mine yesterday!! LOVE IT!!!”<\/p>\n
Others were apparently ready to start shopping. Sam Wilson declared, “I need one!!!” while Jennifer Pe\u00f1a wrote, “stop that\u2019s the cutest! I\u2019ll take one.”<\/p>\n
The reaction was much the same over on Instagram.<\/p>\n
Need it!” user @aerielauren wrote, while @cyndimart83 called the clip “Too cute” before adding, “I need one.<\/p>\n
Verified San Antonio food account @satexasfoodies kept its review even shorter: “I need it.”<\/p>\n
And @alicewonderland_xo knew exactly how the accessory should be sold: “I need 1 hairclip with my unsweet tea from B. Miller’s.”<\/p>\n
At least some locations may have a hard time keeping them around. One Facebook commenter, Violet Rios, wrote, “We sold out the same day.”<\/p>\n
The tiny tea cup is the latest in a growing collection of Bill Miller merchandise inspired by the chain’s iced tea.<\/p>\n
For generations of San Antonians, the oversized cup of Bill Miller tea has been nearly as recognizable as the barbecue itself.<\/p>\n
Now, apparently, it’s also a hairstyle.<\/p>\n
And there’s one advantage this version has over the original: If it ends up sideways in your car, you won’t need a stack of napkins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SAN ANTONIO \u2014 Forget carrying around a giant cup of Bill Miller iced tea.
