Raising Cane’s has expanded its partnership with musician Post Malone, introducing a set of four collectors’ cups for customers to “Post Up” their combo meals through mid-August, the company announced Wednesday.

Baton Rouge, La.-founded Raising Cane’s, which unveiled a Malone-designed restaurant in Midvale, Utah, in April, teamed to produce the beverage containers. The cups rolled out this week, and new ones will be introduced every two weeks through mid-August.

Post, a fan of Raising Cane’s and friend of Raising Cane’s founder Todd Graves, designed the set of 32-ounce cups for the launch of his Utah Cane’s restaurant.

“Collaborating with Todd and being part of the Raising Cane’s brand with our collab restaurant and signature cups has been a fun experience,” said Malone in a statement. “I can’t wait for fans across the country to ‘Post Up’ their combos, see these cups in person, and build out their signature Posty cup collection.”

The cups’ designs draw inspiration from Malone’s tattoos and his on-stage moments, the company said.

Customers can “Post Up” their combo meals for an additional $1.39, which includes a combo meal and the collectors’ cup.

“When Post began speaking to me about his vision for this collaboration, I knew the restaurant would be incredibly special – not only because of the unique look and feel, but also because I knew it would be next-level in the restaurant industry,” Graves said.

“Following the excitement of the restaurant opening and incredible demand for the cups,” Graves added, “we wanted to continue that same momentum and Post-inspired energy by making these cups available to every Caniac and Post Malone fan in America.” 

The four cup designs, several in black and others in signature pink, were produced in limited quantities and are meant to be collected as a set. Each cup has a quick-response, or QR, code on the back for a chance to win Post Malone signed merchandise, concert ticket, and trips.

Raising Cane’s has more than 740 restaurants in 36 states, the Middle East and Guam. The company plans to open 100 new restaurants across several new markets this year.
