The delicious citrus flavor of lemon, lime and orange will remain the same, but that’s where the old stops and the new begins.
“We hope that Mello Yello’s new attitude encourages those who love the outdoors to enjoy their favorite hobbies with a refreshing Mello Yello in-hand,” said Bobby Oliver, director, sparkling citrus brands. “We hope its loyal fans see the new look as something to be proud of, because we know the smooth citrus taste of Mello Yello and its fearless new look will work as hard as he does during his gritty adventures.”
Also a long-term, proud sponsor of the NHRA marquee national touring series, the NHRA Mello Yello Series logo has also been redesigned to reflect the grit and glory of high-speed drag racing.
Mello Yello’s new look is rolling into markets across the country and appears on all Mello Yello and Mello Yello Zero bottles and cans.
