It sounds as if they didn't even bother making a new commercial
from the one they used to fight that tax in New York. I don't know
what the outcome was there. If I remember it correctly, she holds
up some cranberry juice cocktail to drive the point home.

No thinking this is a different ad. She grabs soda and possibly an
'energy' drink while she's complaining. Have never sat through the
entire advert, so maybe she does hold up some 'juice drink'. She's shown
talking to a 'suit', but no idea who he is meant to be; the sound is
always turned down ASAP during adverts
