As the Original Uncola\u00ae, 7UP built its reputation by challenging conventions and offering consumers something different. Today, the brand is returning to those roots with a renewed focus on differentiation, introducing a distinctive lime-forward taste and bold new visual identity designed to help the brand stand out in one of the largest segments in carbonated soft drinks2<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

“This is a bold reinvention of one of America’s most iconic soda brands for a new generation of consumers – starting with the flavor itself,” said Drew Panayiotou, Chief Marketing and Innovation Officer at Keurig Dr Pepper (KDP). “7UP has an incredible legacy, but by giving lime the spotlight,\u00a0we’re\u00a0rewriting the rules of the lemon lime category. We are transforming a beloved heritage brand into a modern disruptor\u2014delivering a sharper visual identity, a\u00a0more refreshing\u00a0taste experience, and\u00a0a distinct position that\u00a0attracts\u00a0new users\u00a0and deepens brand loyalty.”<\/p>\n

Alongside the new recipe, 7UP Regular, 7UP Zero Sugar, Cherry 7UP and Cherry 7UP Zero Sugar will also debut a refreshed visual identity, featuring a vertical logo, bolder colors, a more distinctive design and a new Lime Lemon designation.\u00a0 They will also be supported by “Flip the Sip,” a multiplatform marketing campaign that celebrates the unexpected through social storytelling, cultural moments and in-store experiences nationwide.<\/p>\n
