A Change in Format
Red Bull’s core identity is liquid energy. For decades, the brand has operated exclusively in the beverage space, defined by its slim silver-and-blue cans. This new concept product, an ‘Energy Whip’, abandons the can entirely for a 150g plastic pot with a peelable foil lid.
The proposed format is closer to a single-serving yoghurt or dessert than a drink. It implies a spoonable, semi-solid texture, marking a significant departure for the Austrian company. The packaging retains the familiar Red Bull diamond-plate pattern and bull logo, but the context is entirely different, shifting the product from the drinks chiller to what would presumably be the dairy or desserts aisle.
The Watermelon Edition Flavour
The flavour profile, ‘Watermelon Sherbet Dip’, connects directly to an existing part of the Red Bull portfolio. The Red Bull The Watermelon Edition is a permanent fixture in their colour-coded range of flavoured energy drinks. This whip takes that established base and adds a distinctly retro confectionery element.
The ‘Sherbet Dip’ component evokes classic British sweets, suggesting a fizziness or tangy powder quality. It’s a combination of a modern energy drink flavour with a nostalgic sweet concept, aiming for a crossover appeal. The caption that accompanied the image — “This would get you buzzing” — points to the product’s intended function as a stimulant, despite its dessert-like appearance.
