Sprite Cranberry was a limited holiday flavor introduced by Sprite in 2013, promoted in a Christmas commercial starring LeBron James built around the thirstiest time of the year. The ad faded until edited clips resurfaced online around 2017 and 2018, where users deep fried the footage, looped the offer, and inserted it into unrelated videos. That revival turned a seasonal soda promotion into a lasting internet joke, and the line still returns every winter as a nostalgic meme sound.
