I. RECESS NEW FLAVORS LAUNCH




Recess introduces 3 new flavors in Spring 2020: Coconut Lime, Black Cherry, and Blood Orange.  Packaging is designed for each new flavor and each is captured in its own unique setup for the launch campaign. Recess brand identity received a refresh to coincide with launch of new flavors. The original gradient (based on the three original flavors) is updated to include the full spectrum.
