Other drinks that have been given a new name include Gatorade Fierce® now Bring It™, Gatorade X-Factor® changes to Be Tough™, Gatorade AM™ now called Shine On™, Gatorade Rain™ becomes No Excuses™, and Gatorade Tiger™ now Focus. The company will also be introducing two new flavors for the year of ‘09 called G2® Lemon-Lime and G2® Strawberry-Kiwi.
As far as for the promotion of the revamped brand, an ad for Gatorade made it’s way online which features tennis player Serena Williams, Muhammad Ali, and a host of other famed athletes which is narrated by rapper Lil Wayne.
