Zevia Peaches & Cream
A scroll through social media will show you that treats get a bit of an unserious reputation. Often diminished by the word "little," they're made to seem frivolous or even shameful. Zevia believes that narrative gets treats all wrong.
Treats are powerful and critical to our survival. They are a sanity break amid chronic chaos.
Treats aren't just nice to have. Treats assuage agony. Treats divert disaster.
Treats Save Lives.
No treat does it better than Peaches & Cream, a sweet soda that soothes any malady from childcare crises to workday woes.
To prove that Peaches & Cream saves lives, we made a very serious pharmaceutical commercial that show how it works.

We sampled our “treat-like” flavors, including Salted Caramel and Strawberries & Cream, at our Treats Save Lives NYC popup.
The cost of entry? Just completing a short survey about treats.
Together with our partner Small Girls PR, we used the survey data to create a 5-page State of the Little Treat report. This report was shared with the media and used internally for flavor development and campaign planning.
