Sophie Turner Brings a Little Summer Magic to the Riviera With St-Germain

Jul. 13, 2026

ST-GERMAIN Elderflower Liqueur today launches a new global campaign set on the French Riviera, featuring actress and collaborator Sophie Turner and centered around simple moments of delight.

At the heart of the campaign is a new short film featuring Sophie enjoying a beach day with friends. When the weather takes an unexpected turn, she doesn’t let it disrupt the moment. Instead, she finds a way to chase the clouds away before enjoying a ST-GERMAIN Spritz as the sunshine returns.

Directed by Sophie Edelstein and created in partnership with NCA London, the film debuts globally on May 7 across streaming platforms including Netflix, Disney/Hulu, Amazon Prime, Warner Max/Discovery, NBCU/Peacock, and Paramount/Paramount, and across digital and social channels, with additional behind-the-scenes content rolling out throughout the summer.

Sophie Turner said:

"This summer I will be escaping to the French Riviera with ST-GERMAIN. Filming on my new project has been fun and intense, so I am looking forward to hanging out with friends and enjoying a simple summer there. The ST-GERMAIN Spritz is my perfect partner for that - it’s light, bright and fresher tasting, and captures the essence of summer, whether you’re on a beach far away, or just embracing being carefree at home."

 

The campaign lands as the spritz continues to grow in popularity globally, with drinkers increasingly favoring lighter, fresher tasting options suited to relaxed, social occasions. Google search volume reflects this shift, with interest for the ST-GERMAIN Spritz increasing +20% worldwide in 2025, and interest in its Italian cousin, the Hugo Spritz, rising +58% globally*. Search demand peaks during the spring and summer ‘spritz season’, highlighting its growing appeal as a go-to drink for the warmer months 

Emma Fox, Global Vice President of ST-GERMAIN said:

"Summer is all about simple, shared moments, and we’re seeing more people lean into relaxed, effortless ways of socializing. With Sophie, we wanted to bring that to life and show that, rain or shine, any of us can be the hero of cocktail hour with a ST-GERMAIN Spritz."

 

The campaign kicks off a summer-long programme of activity from the French aperitif brand, which will be amplified by creators globally, sharing their own ST-GERMAIN moments throughout the season. A series of activations and pop-ups will bring the Riviera-inspired spirit of the campaign to life across key locations worldwide, turning everyday occasions into ‘Delightful Escapes’.

At the heart of these experiences is the ST-GERMAIN ‘Riviera Club’ pop up in Cannes, where guests can escape the everyday and enjoy a perfectly crafted ST-GERMAIN Spritz throughout July and August. Later this summer, ST-GERMAIN will also unveil a new fashion collaboration, showing that the ST-GERMAIN Spritz isn’t just about what’s in your glass, it’s about how you arrive and the effortless flair you bring to any occasion.
