Absolut Vodka is taking mixology to new heights by partnering with creative agency Ogilvy to blend artificial intelligence (AI) and local flair in a groundbreaking Canadian campaign. The "Mix Your Neighbourhood" initiative serves up one-of-a-kind cocktails that capture the essence of different Canadian neighborhoods.
Through the power of AI, Absolut and Ogilvy have devised an ingenious way to translate neighborhood characteristics into visually stunning cocktail artwork. These AI-generated designs provide the inspiration for local bartenders to craft unique drinks that celebrate the spirit of each community.
Ogilvy Canada's Chief Creative Officer, Francesco Grandi, explained how Absolut's history of mixing iconic drinks inspired the campaign: "If your neighborhood was a cocktail, what would it look like?" By harnessing AI, the collaboration has unlocked new creative potential for the brand, allowing it to evolve alongside popular culture and delight audiences everywhere.
Caroline Begley, Vice-President of Marketing at Corby Spirit and Wine, emphasized Absolut's commitment to pushing the boundaries of creativity. The "Mix Your Neighbourhood" campaign not only pioneers new approaches to mixology but also fosters a deeper connection with Canadians in the communities they serve.
