Proof: Handmade in Small Batches.

​Proof Syrup, established in 2014 in Decatur, Georgia, specializes in handcrafted cocktail syrups designed to simplify the creation of classic cocktails at home. Their products combine high-quality ingredients like organic cane sugar, real citrus oils, and premium aromatic bitters to deliver authentic flavors.

  • Proof Syrup is a premium cocktail syrup brand handcrafted in small batches. Known for elevating at-home mixology, Proof needed a stronger emotional hook to compete in a saturated market and connect with both connoisseurs and casual drinkers.

  • Campaign creative direction supported by strategic brand profiling, including customer segmentation, personality alignment, and narrative development.

  • Proof had a strong product but lacked a campaign that captured its full cultural potential. The visual identity didn’t yet communicate the ease, sophistication, and nostalgic charm that the brand could own.

  • We developed a campaign rooted in mid-century Americana, evoking the charm of vintage advertisements while framing Proof as the effortless choice for serious cocktails. Using brand archetype analysis and audience insights, we created a visual and narrative system that balanced retro appeal with modern mixology.

  • A distinct, memorable campaign that elevated brand perception, improved engagement, and deepened emotional connection with both new and existing customers.
