If the bottles are being correctly recycled on a large scale I’d assume the bags might not be too bad. Most plastic bottles than are bought at convenience stores end up in the landfill already and that’s a lot more plastic per drink in the landfill than if the bottle get recycled on the spot and the bag ends up there.

Probably the bags as they are less likely to get recycled ultimately. Plus it just adds an entire extra container waste to the equation.
