Crusha, a brand synonymous with milkshake syrups since the 1950s is repositioning itself with a refreshed visual identity to captivate a new generation of consumers and preserve its nostalgic charm. To update its image and revive its youthful spirit and irreverent personality, the brand collaborated with strategic brand design studio Outlaw.
The new look for Crusha leans into the style of classic diner milkshakes, tall glasses, striped straws and thick formulas. For this project, Outlaw worked with a local illustrator to give Errol the cat a cool new appearance.
The authentic, original milkshake syrup brand makes it easy for consumers of all ages to enjoy an at-home milkshake experience with its bottled milkshake mixes in timeless flavors like chocolate and strawberry.
