Frooti was launched in a green rectangular Tetra Pak as a ready-to-serve mango drink. Frooti was not the first mango drink, but quickly won a large market share.^{[citation needed]}

The tagline "Mango Frooti, Fresh and Juicy", was created by the marketing duo of Arun Lahori and GM Menon, whose brief as the brand's communications agency was to "make mango Frooti synonymous with freshness and juiciness". Other slogans used by the brand have included: "Fresh and juicy got to be Frooti", and "Juice Up your Life".

The drink has been advertised by Allu Arjun, Alia Bhatt, and Shah Rukh Khan. The brand spent 40% more on its marketing in 2013.^[1]
