This week, I thought it was time to look at the typography of cider brands. There are quite a range of ciders around but I tried to narrow it down to include some popular ones but also more niche ones.
This week, I thought it would be fun to look at the branding of different alcopops, or ‘ready to drinks’, (RTDs) and see how the typography in their branding varies. Everyone remembers their favourite type of alcopop that they took to their first party; the excitement of having an alcoholic drink for the first time, making a face despite there being barely any alcohol in the drink and then slurping it like juice once you got used to it. Moreover, I decided to look back at the nostalgic days when our drink preferences were more likely to be Smirnoff Ice than a gin and tonic.
A rum and Coke is match made in heaven so I thought it would only be right to look at the variety of rums out there and the differences in their brand typography. Let’s get ready to rumble with this week’s rum brand typography!
