Liquid Death has decided to run a new campaign for its Death Island iced tea flavor by putting it up against the most famous competitor: the Long Island Iced Tea. Yes, it's an ad campaign about a false test, but who cares? It's comedy, which is what the brand aims for every time, as they show that office workers had better results drinking their tea compared to the alcoholic drink for a productive work day. Complete with a video showing off the "results." Enjoy the new campaign!

Which Iced Tea Held Up Better With Office Workers?

We gave one group of workers our iced tea with a boost of natural caffeine (equal to a diet soda), B vitamins, and less sugar. Then we gave another group Long Island Iced Teas packed with insane amounts of alcohol. After 9 hours of drinking in the office, Liquid Death Iced Tea was the clear winner in terms of likability and productivity. Liquid Death Iced Tea drinkers were at the top of their game, showing more productivity, better morale, and less likely to be seen by HR. Their Long Island counterparts were waking up on a conference table, crying in prison, or knocked out in a kiddie pool.
