Smirnoff | It Started with a Mule | Australia

Smirnoff Australia has launched a 1920s Hollywood-inspired digital campaign to promote the brand at a time when the Australian government has imposed a taxation on booze mixers akin to the restrictions issued during the Prohibition era.

Smirnoff | It Started with a Mule | Australia
In the black-and-white digital game titled “It Started with a Mule”, 1920’s character Smirnoff has to rescue bombshell damsel-in-distress Ginger Beer from the villain Lime and, as expected, the characters are named after the ingredients of a Moscow Mule.
