As part of a complete brand refresh, independent creative agency Periscope teamed up with Izzy’s Ice Cream to launch a brand-inspired ice cream by the name of Love Potion No. 921. The name of the ice cream pays tribute to the agency's headquarters, stationed at 921 Washington Ave. S. in Minneapolis.
The branded ice cream boasts a combination of blood orange, pomegranate and ginger and reflects the brand's mission to Do Things People Love, as well as the fact that the ingredients are grown in China and India, where Periscope has global offices. The brand-themed ice cream also helps to introduce the brand's new color scheme.
For National Ice Cream Day this year, Izzy’s Ice Cream served the special Love Potion No. 921 it created in collaboration with Periscope.
