The “healthy soda” boom is in full force, with brands racing to stake their claim in the crowded category. Spindrift’s launch into the space comes just as Coca-Cola launches Simply Pop and Poppi scrambles to recover from its vending machine controversy. With so many brands vying for attention, the category is starting to feel just a teensy bit crowded.

But Spindrift’s packaging takes a distinct approach, leaning into a recognizable design language while setting itself apart from the artificial sweetener-fueled competition.

The cans keep Spindrift’s signature white backdrop, but the color blocks are richer, mimicking the indulgent flavors inside. The typography is crisp and unfussy, letting the fruit-forward flavors do the talking through a strong color palette. Unlike many competitors that rely on maximalist design to fight for shelf space, Spindrift maintains a balance that’s structured and fun.
