Our labels over time

Every bottle tells a story. From our first concept drops to the labels we press today, here's how the look of Freshstart has grown alongside the juice inside.

Chapter 01 · The First Drops

Start fresh. Stay fresh.

Before there were labels, there were the drops — our very first posters. Juice poured into a simple glass or mug, a bold flavor name, and a single promise: Start fresh. Stay fresh. This is where Freshstart found its voice.

And before the poster, the prep — whole produce weighed out by hand on the countertop, exactly the way every batch still begins.

Chapter 02 · The First Label Posters

Bold blocks of color

Our first true packaging: a solid color block anchoring the bottle, the freshstart wordmark in white and green, and each flavor named in a confident italic script. Loud, proud, and impossible to miss on a shelf.

Chapter 03 · Refined & Translucent

Letting the juice show through

We pulled back the color block so the real juice could shine. The label went translucent — reading as if printed straight onto the glass — with cleaner type and more room to breathe. The same character, quietly grown up.

Chapter 04 · The Freshstart of Today

Where we are now

Today's bottles pair rich, true-to-ingredient photography with a refined wordmark and flavor script — plus the occasional illustrated poster for the fun of it. Polished, but still unmistakably us.

Chapter 05 · Studio & Shelf-Ready

Ready for its close-up

With the label locked, we brought the bottles into the studio. Clean, minimal packaging photographed in natural light — a full six-pack lineup, sun-dappled and shelf-ready. This is the look that carries Freshstart today.

Chapter 06 · The Brand Comes to Life

Bold, vibrant, unmistakable

Beyond the bottle, each flavor earned its own campaign poster — saturated color, fresh-picked ingredients, and a flavor script that gives every blend its own personality. Roots Refresh in deep magenta, Ginger Boost and Melon Refresh in vivid green.

Chapter 07 · Telling the Whole Story

Beyond the label

The newest era isn't just packaging — it's storytelling. Social-ready compositions and ingredient anatomy diagrams break down exactly what goes into every bottle and why, turning the label into an education. Tap any image to view it full-size.
