Hold My Hydroboost

Not a slogan. Not a tagline. But a phrase that flips the popular expression “Hold My Beer” to put Essentia’s new product name into culture in a repeatable and unmissable way. But rather than the sip leading to an epic fail, it instead becomes the catalyst for an iconic win — proof of what’s possible when we’re properly hydrated.

Film

The campaign begins with Jimmy Butler, starring in: H-O-R-S-E on a Horse.

Tease

Ahead of launch, we leaked a photo to Reddit. NBA fans went wild and then — they ran with it. The image spread across the internet in the form of reposts, comments, memes, and mentions from places like ESPN, House of Highlights, and Miami Heat Nation.
 
 

Results
