An Energy Shot for Social Networking? Enter Facedrink


by Darryl Williams


The importance of social media has grown increasingly over the past few years. Facebook is undoubtedly the most popular reference and it has become an integral part of life. People have adopted common expressions such as "liking this" in everyday conversation and we have started to see more and more Facebook inspired Halloween costumes. Nominated for eight Academy Awards, "The Social Network" is a movie about the founding of the social networking website Facebook.

Most recently, I discovered that the social networking site has even dipped its foot into the beverage world! The young California based company, Facedrink, has developed a Facebook inspired energy drink shot. The company promotes the flavor as "tasting like friendship" as a reference to the social media site as well as utilizing the phrase "It gives you Social Energy" in marketing and they define it as "Social energy is what you need to manage all of the events in your life."

Facedrink is similar to 5-hour Energy which is the number one selling product in the energy shot category. However, the makers of the product claim that it is a healthier alternative to traditional energy shots. The three-calorie energy shot is free of both sugar and carbohydrates. It contains a blend of natural fruit flavors, taurine and 140mg of caffeine.

Each energy shot is packaged in a deep blue shrink sleeve with simple graphics. The word Facedrink is printed in the classic Facebook white font with the phrase "the social drink" below it in the same font. Below that is a lighter blue box that reads "Add as Friend" as another reference to the site.

It is unlikely for Facedrink to be named the official drink of Facebook since it has obviously no actual connection with the social media site. This drink is likely going to face some legal problems when Mark Zuckerberg gets wind of it; he is very vigilant when it comes to protecting his brand. The sale of the "Poking Inventor", an action figure that bore his image, has recently been banned although I will admit that is more of a serious issue.

This new product is being marketed exclusively toward social media users, promising Facebook over-users to provide them "social energy." So is Facedrink destined to be the drink of choice for nerds around the globe?
