“Creating visuals for a beverage brand from scratch”

A while back I received a request from a new beverage startup Future Foods. They had one line up beverages coming and needed some strong visuals to use both on their website and other digital media.

Initial Brief:
DRNX is a Sugar-Free Adaptogenic Water.

DRNX is a clean label, sugar-free, performance-oriented beverage. Lively, refreshing, and finishing clean, DRNX offers true hydration, novel and bright spice-inspired flavors from around the world, and an adaptogenic blend unique in the market.
The result is a beverage that leaves you refreshed, hydrated, and running at peak performance, all day, every day!
