Admittedly, this wasn’t the story I thought I’d be writing and yet here we are. Credit to the Lipton marketing team for finding a unique angle.
Adam Thielen — the long-time Vikings receiver who is now helping Bryce Young and the Carolina Panthers — is taking some time to promote the merits using Lipton’s iced tea as a brine for turkey. Personally, I find that to be a strange choice (not a sin, just odd), but my culinary preferences are neither here nor there. The NFL veteran is leveraging his platform into a chance to pickup some extra cash, so that means extolling the merits of a beverage/poultry crossover.
