Lipton - emotional simplicity does it

That Lipton is probably the highest selling tea in Lebanon is a fact. That tea is a major part of post-Iftar (and soohoor too) is also a fact. That Lipton needed a Ramadan ad is a no brainer. They could have gone "creative" (read - one which needs a major explaining and a manual of instructions), or flat (read - just the brand logo and thank you), but nope, they struck just the middle with an emotional punch. "Tea unites us" - and it does, away from differing political opinions, age barriers, non-compatible music tastes and the list goes on, tea is that point where everything becomes mellower, softer, and yes, warmer. Pimo strikes again. There are two short ads - the Lebanon version (here) and the Kuwait version (here).
