We’re living during a time where the phrase, “Do it yourself,” is quite literally becoming a live-by motto. And this isn’t a bad thing! More and more, people are embracing making their dreams a reality based solely on their own merit. They’re original, tenacious, go-getters, hard working, and unapologetically confident individuals. It’s time we celebrate those who go the extra mile all year round (even if you might not be one of them).

Using one drummer’s story, New Amsterdam has begun celebrating the journey to greatness in its latest campaign “Pour Your Soul Out.” This campaign shows that this brand is more than its products. It’s a brand that values its consumers, understands its audience, and aims to encourage and uplift them. This role is not essential or necessary for a vodka and gin company to take on, but in doing so New Amsterdam expresses their authenticity and dedication to being a cultural influencer. Pour one out for those who pour their souls out with these original New Amsterdam cocktails. Cheers to those who go all in!
