As a canned water brand, [Liquid Death's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-death1) provocative advertising is more memorable than the taste of its products but the brand is venturing into the iced tea category with a new beverage lineup and a bold Your Grandma’s [Energy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/el-jefe-energy) Drink campaign to match. The campaign for the beverage brand's first iced tea products features grannies going wild for the all-new flavors like Grim Leafer, Rest in Peach and [Armless Palmer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-death-ice-teas).

Your Grandma’s Energy Drink introduces Liquid Death Iced Tea with geriatric women pulling stunts like adolescent men. In the campaign, the grannies play in heavy metal bands, do donuts in a car, grind down handrails on skateboards and also launch privates from their unmentionables.

The spirit of the campaign speaks to the rebels in the hearts of all consumers, regardless of age.
