Our Favorite New Ad Begins with “I’m Not Your Grandma!” Thank You, Canada Dry

A Canada Dry commercial busts stereotypes with a feisty star who talks with unapologetic directness, irreverence, and BOLDNESS. Brava!

OK, they had us at the leopard print. But this new commercial for Canada Dry Ginger Ale Bold has more than NextTribe's signature print going for it. It has a fabulously feisty star who is ready to set you right on any stereotypes you might have about older women.

The first words of the 15-second spot are: "I'm not your Grandma." And from there our leopard-clad spokeswoman tells us the ways she's not like any grandmother who might drink regular Canada Dry Ginger Ale. In one version, she says she doesn't wear 12 layers of clothes in July. In another, she reports she doesn't nap every 20 minutes.
