Schweppes: Bringing Sparkle Back to a Forgotten Icon
Miami, FL
Client: AAA
Agency: Miami Ad School
2023
The Ask:
Rescue Schweppes from the dusty corners of the mixer shelf—and make it sparkle again for a new generation of drinkers.
The Challenge:
Gen Z wasn’t checking for Schweppes. It was seen as your grandma’s mixer, not something you’d flex on a night out. The brand had history but lacked relevance, cultural cachet, or a clear voice. So we asked: what does Schweppes do better than anyone?
What We Did:
We brought back the sparkle—literally and metaphorically. Through brand repositioning, campaign ideation, and content strategy, we gave Schweppes a POV: effervescent, playful, and a little bit unhinged.
Our creative platform—“Schweppes Siorres”—celebrated maximalism. In a world of neutrals and minimalism, Schweppes became the fizzy, flamboyant disruptor. We imagined Schweppes as the person who brings glitter to a BBQ or shows up overdressed on purpose. That energy fueled everything from visual identity to social tone of voice.
We built the campaign across touchpoints:
-
OOH that flirted back
-
Social that embraced chaos
-
Cocktail collabs with fashion and drag creators
Where It Worked:
Schweppes became more than a mixer—it became a vibe. The kind of brand you post, not just pour. Every touchpoint was designed to interrupt expectations and reframe Schweppes as bold, fizzy, and unapologetically extra.
The Impact:
A forgotten heritage brand reimagined for the For You page.
A tone that sparkled louder than the bubbles.
And a Gen Z campaign that made “too much” the perfect amount.
