TEENAGE FRESHNESS. 7UP.

Sprite owned teenage cool. 7UP felt like a drink for people over 35, something adults recommended when your stomach hurt.

Trying to win over teenagers would only turn 7UP into a weaker Sprite.

 

So I made it about feeling like a teenager long after adolescence was over.

For generations, Argentine students have celebrated finishing high school with a trip to Bariloche, Patagonia.

The last great shared ritual of Argentine adolescence became the heart of the story.

In football-obsessed Argentina, “Promoción 88, que no se corte” (“Class of ’88, never cut loose”) became part of popular culture without a football in sight.

People didn’t just remember the commercial. They used it to remember themselves.
