There is a prior project trying something similar: Open Cola. Maybe studying
how they went about it could help here.

Does anybody know how Open Cola handled their own drink-as-publicity-stunt?
If I recall correctly, Open Cola was the name of the company, and Open Cola
was also the name of their "open" beverage with its own recipe that you
could use yourself...
