# Crayon-Themed Soda Branding Jones Soda Co. Partners with Crayola on a Nostalgic Co-Branded Pack By Kalin Ned | Published 2025-05-13 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crayonthemed-soda References: [newswire](https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/jones-soda-teams-with-crayola-on-multi-pack-featuring-returning-crayon-colors-882936163.html)  [Jones Soda Co.](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jones-minis) has partnered with [Crayola](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retired-colors-collection) to create a unique co-branded crayon-themed soda pack that merges nostalgic childhood colors with craft beverages. The limited-edition Jones Soda Co. x Crayola collaboration features six vibrantly flavored sodas — each one is matched to one of Crayola's temporarily "unretired" crayon hues. The Berry Lemonade mirrors the Blizzard Blue hue, the Pineapple Cream evokes the Dandelion colorway, the Green Apple really Magic Mint, the Grape stands for Violate Blue, the Strawberry Lime is synonymous with Mulberry, and the Orange & Cream references Orange Red. Packaged in a design reminiscent of Crayola’s iconic crayon box, the 12-pack of [crayon-themed sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jel-sert-and-crayola) also includes a box of Crayola's "unretired" colors. The collectible nature of the packaging and limited-time crayon reissue could appeal to nostalgia-driven adults who remember these discontinued shades, while the vibrant, flavor-matched sodas introduce younger audiences to Jones’ unconventional brand.
