This TENZING Christmas ad takes a cheeky approach to holiday marketing by providing Santa Claus with a backstory that imagines him as a different man than he's known. The ad sees Santa starting off as a svelte character before striking a sponsorship deal with a well-known soft drink brand more than 100 years ago, which caused him to put on some weight around the midsection. The ad then sees Santa switching to TENZING energy drinks that offer a 100% plant-based recipe with no sugar in the mix alongside vitamins C and D, lion's mane mushroom and magnesium, which have contributed to him trimming down but being more energetic.
The TENZING Christmas ad is being run now online on Google, TikTok and Lad Bible.
