Malibu Boasts the 'Get Ready with Malibu Pink' Campaign

— March 30, 2026 — Marketing
Malibu calls attention to its recently released Malibu Pink — a pink rum-based spirit flavoured with guava, coconut, and pineapple — with a marketing initiative titled 'Get Ready With Malibu Pink' that seeks to position the beverage as part of the pre-going-out ritual popularized by social media content.

To highlight the versatility and taste of the pink rum-based spirit, Malibu taps influencer Sabrina Brier, who showcases Malibu Pink in getting-ready scenarios. The company also enters into a collaboration with the fashion and lifestyle brand LoveShackFancy to create integrated experiences that blend style, social gatherings, and the consumption of the new spirit.

Caroline Begley, Vice President of Marketing, Pernod Ricard USA, commented: "We know for today's drinker, aesthetic is just as important as flavour, and Malibu Pink delivers on that with a product that brings the vibes as much as it does great taste. Malibu Pink has brought the fun back to the rum aisle. Now, we're injecting that same energy into the getting ready moment, adding a new flair to a ritual that has become a staple in Genzennial culture."
