Absolut Drink Celebrity Collaboration

ABSOLUT® VODKA Unveils a World of Exceptional Drinks with Celebrity Collaboration

ABSOLUT VODKA recently debuted “Drinks,” the latest work of a new generation of creative collaborators. Via a collaboration with some of the most exciting personalities in pop culture, “Drinks” brings the cocktail world to life with renowned fashion photographer Ellen Von Unwerth and critically acclaimed actresses Kate Beckinsale and Zooey Deschanel to celebrate uniquely ABSOLUT drinks.

The initiative underlines that every cocktail starts with a story – from the legendary lore of the Bloody Mary’s creation at Harry’s Bar in Paris to the legions of female fans of the otherworldly Cosmopolitan.

“As the next iteration in the campaign, ‘Drinks’ is a witty interpretation of classic cocktails that pay homage to ABSOLUT VODKA’s legacy as a truly iconic spirits brand and the key ingredient in making these drinks an exceptional experience for consumers and bartenders,” says Tim Murphy, ABSOLUT Vice President of Marketing. “No other vodka has as much longevity within both the cocktail and creative worlds, and “Drinks” is the culmination of our 30 years of bringing collaborations to life, while showcasing the drinks that made the brand a back bar staple.”

Known for her distinctly bold and playful adaptations of fashion and beauty photography, Ellen von Unwerth captures Kate Beckinsale (pictured) and Zooey Deschanel’s characters as they are immersed in different cocktail worlds. The drinks profiled include the iconic cocktails that made the brand famous, including ABSOLUT Bloody, ABSOLUT Cosmo, ABSOLUT Twist and ABSOLUT Crush, as well as a new recipe to be revealed in the coming months.

“Our goal with ABSOLUT ‘Drinks’ was to bring a new generation of creative collaborators together to interpret, with us, ABSOLUT-inspired cocktails in a highly visualized experience. What developed was a bold look and feel that we hope will inspire a new generation of vodka drinkers, who are of legal drinking age, to embrace the brand,” said Mark Figliulo, Chief Creative Officer, TBWA\Chiat\Day, New York.
