The US Open generated 10 million dollars in sales this year alone — through a drink. That’s more than the combined award money for both men’s and women’s divisions. The honey deuce is the US Open’s hottest new accessory. 🍸 But the honey deuce was created in 2006 — so how is a drink from 17 years ago trending now? The US Open is a “see and be seen” event, making it necessary to be seen with the honey deuce. The honey deuce is an extremely Instagram-able product with its eye-catching color and tennis-inspired honeydew garnish. 🎾 And it’s site-specific and exclusive. Attending the US Open with a honey deuce in hand is a once-a-year opportunity, driving the scarcity appeal of the drink. But if you can’t make it to the event, the recipe is extremely simple, spurring organic UGC with users posting their own recipes. What do you think about the US Open’s use of the honey deuce as part of their marketing strategy? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below. #USOpen #marketingstrategy #honeydeuce

not sure how the 70 cups guy was able to walk after or keep that tower standing. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and believe he honestly drank them all and didn't just collect others' empty cups. In any case, this is wayyy better than the Stanley Cup trend...

that special blend of unique, playful, + legacy make it part of culture and creates a community - if the honey deuce was missing one of those elements, it wouldn't be as strong
