One rule: Keep it Brisk®.

For the freshest angle on the bold refreshing taste of Lipton Brisk® Iced Teas, we asked the world’s hottest artists to take a sip and illustrate the trip. Our 6 flavors served up the inspiration; the rest was up to them. Get to know each label’s designer, and see where our teas carried their creativity.

Strawberry Melon Iced Tea

…funny faces, in a unique universe…
Strawberry Melon, by Colletivo

The Inspiration:
“We try to put flavor on the design pack, using characters that combine funny faces and a unique universe behind, with abstract elements and lots of colors.”

The Artist:
Colletivo, located in Sao Paulo, Brazil, is a multidisciplinary studio of hot talented designers. Founded in 2003, Colletivo works in different segments of design and has worked with clients including PepsiCo, Nike, MTV ans Nickelodeon among others.

The Flavor:
Don’t be fooled by that sweet pink color. There’s nothing cute and cuddly about this Brisk®. It’s got intense strawberry and melon flavors that will give your taste buds a real workout. This is fruit flavor that’s way outside the juice box. It’s more like juice boxing.

Lemon Iced Tea:

…explosions of “zing”…
Lemon, by Matt W. Moore

The Inspiration:
“My Vectorfunk Design for Lipton Brisk® Lemon is inspired by abstract geometry. I wanted to portray a clean, asymmetrical landscape, complete with a lemon tree, cool breeze, and explosions of “zing” (aka : flavor). It was a lot of fun creating it. I hope everyone enjoys the revamped look as much as I enjoyed creating it.”

The Artist:
Matt W. Moore is the founder of MWM Graphics and his studio resides in Portland, Maine. Matt works across a number of disciplines, from colorful digital illustrations in his signature “Vectorfunk” style, to freeform watercolor paintings, and massive aerosol murals. MWM exhibits his artwork in galleries all around the world, and is also Co-Founder & Designer for Glyph Cue Clothing.

The Flavor:
This is the Brisk that started it all. The original iced tea with tons of attitude. The one with the bold lemon flavor that kicked iced tea off the back porch and gave it some street cred. Now that’s Brisk®, baby!

Also available in No Cal Lemon

Sweet Tea Iced Tea:

…that taste of absolute satisfaction …
Sweet Tea, by Tristan Eaton

The Inspiration:
“The inspiration for my design was capturing a moment of absolute happiness and satisfaction. In a dream or in real life, those moments of pure happiness are rare. They are what life is all about. Hopefully my Sweet Tea flavor can give us all that taste of absolute satisfaction!”

The Artist:
Tristan Eaton founded THUNDERDOG STUDIOS, New York artist Tristan Eaton's work can be found on the walls of city streets, art museums and everywhere in-between. No matter where it's found, the style and message is just as potent. Most famous for his work creating Kidrobot's toys and mascots, Eaton has been a pioneer in the worlds of advertising, street art and designer toys. Eaton's un-mistakeable style is a modern blend of graffiti, anime and classic American cartooning. He happily resides in Brooklyn, NY.

The Flavor:
OK, we admit it. We scoured the South for the boldest Sweet Tea Recipe we could find. Then we stole it. Yes, there was a chase involving several pick up trucks and a few state troopers. But once you taste our Brisk® Sweet Tea, we think you’ll agree - the buckshot in our fenders was worth it.

Tea-Lemonade:

…a crazy party of tea and lemonade energy…
Tea-Lemonade , by SOPA

The Inspiration:
"I am Brazillian. Sopa means soup in my native language. I create my work the same way you make soup. I mix a bunch of ingredients and just cook it up. The ingredients are emotions, images, stories, colors- anything really. Just like cooking, when you are happy, your food makes people happy, and when you are sad it makes people sad. My heart is the chef and my hands are the cook. I'm always surprised with the crazy fun stuff that comes out of my kitchen.

When I was creating the illustration for Brisk® Tea-Lemonade, I wanted to create a crazy party of tea and lemonade. Just like the tea-lemonade energy of the product, it was a mix of half fun and half terrifying. Of monsters and robots. Of abstract and literal. Of sane and crazy".

The Artist:
SOPA, located in Canada, was founded by Japanese Brazilian artist Caio Oyafuso, and specializes in freehand illustration and is at the forefront of urban design..

The Flavor:
Meet the Brisk® with the split personality. Is it a bold refreshing Iced Tea or a tangy sweet lemonade? The answer is yes to both! It’s Half Iced Tea, Half Lemonade, and all bold. An identity crisis never tasted so good.

Peach Iced Tea:

…sweet, fresh taste—with a twist…
Peach, by ILOVEDUST

The Inspiration:
“We took the word juicy and thought about what that would look like if we couldn't use the more obvious visuals, let the drink do the talking if you like. Our illustrated pattern takes the ideas of a sweet fresh taste and twists it on its head.”

The Artist:
ILOVEDUST, located in England, are a multi-disciplinary boutique design studio specializing in design, illustration and motion graphics. ILOVEDUST are renowned for their crafted approach, attention to detail and unique aesthetics. Their diverse working techniques, styles and expertise blend seamlessly together to create a portfolio of acclaimed work.

The Flavor:
The peach is the world’s fuzziest fruit. Brisk® Peach flavor has absolutely no peach fuzz. We blend our fuzz-less flavor with green tea – not the kind you get with chopsticks – the kind that hits you like dropkicks. Who knew Green tea could taste so peachy?

Raspberry Iced Tea:

…a monster taste explosion…
Raspberry, by McFaul Studio

The Inspiration:
“...a monster taste explosion. That’s what! It informed our thinking and our treatment. No prolonged pedestrian graphic for this flavor...oh no! Spur of the moment, get it down quickly and let the mind explode whilst we were doing it. Simple really. As for what elements we included...again, we just let ourselves wander. The taste blows you apart! That’s what we thought. That’s how we thought. Bang! Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhoooooooooooooooooommmmmm...”

The Flavor:
We started with bold Brisk® Iced Tea. Then we captured the wildest raspberries on the planet and extracted all of their flavor. Frankly, it wasn’t pleasant for those little critters. But their pain is your gain. Take a swig. This is raspberry refreshment with lots more razzle.
