In order to introduce its 'Flavor-Charged Iced Tea' as a bold option for summer, FUZE created a drink campaign starring none other than Mr. T.
Butterflyz features the actor, wrestler and bodyguard as a winged butterfly, boasting the benefits of drinking the iced tea. Mr. T's unusual role and the flavor of the iced tea both remind consumers to challenge what they know about the familiar.
In addition to releasing iced tea commercial online and setting up Mr. T-themed sampling stations throughout the summer, FUZE will also be supporting this initiative with social content. Fans who tweet using the #fuzify and #flavorchargedtea tags will be eligible to have their photos brought to life with a variety of colorful special effects.
