Liquid Death and NASCAR have partnered to launch the 'Pro Driver' campaign, offering fans a unique opportunity to become Pro Drivers for Liquid Death Iced Tea. This initiative provides "three selected participants with a $30,000 sponsorship contract, an official Liquid Death car wrap, and custom apparel featuring their image: Additionally, winners will receive free Liquid Death Iced Tea for one year."
As Liquid Death assumes its role as the Official Iced Tea of NASCAR, the campaign encourages fans to participate by filming themselves drinking a can of Liquid Death Iced Tea in under 18 seconds while standing in front of their car. To enter, "participants should post their video on Instagram or TikTok with the hashtag #LiquidDeathProDriver. The selection process will evaluate entries based on both style and speed."
This unique auto-racing campaign which places Liquid Death Iced Tea at the center, will run until November 10th.
