AVEC impresses in reviews as a low-sugar mixer and standalone sparkler that tastes fresh, clean, and often “crisp,” with standout flavors like Jalapeño & Blood Orange, Yuzu & Lime, Grapefruit & Pomelo, Hibiscus & Pomegranate, and Fuji Apple & Cardamom. The brand’s unique, natural flavor pairings and balanced fizz win parties and mocktail hours, though multiple reviewers cite mild/underpowered flavor, occasional bitterness or strong spice, and note some flavors don’t hold up with dry spirits.

Ironically I liked these as a mixer more than as a standalone. The yuzu flavor was probably my favorite but I didn’t feel like this was any sort of alcohol replacement, more so just an interesting beverage. Don’t think I’ll order again unless they’re on sale.

I really liked the yuzu and lime flavored one of these I tried. I had it by itself with no alcohol. The taste reminded me of sour candies, so it brought back good memories. I appreciate that this only has good ingredients in it.

The flavor was very tropical and the hint of almond was amazing. I didn’t taste any spice and I think I have a pretty low spice tolerance. I’d like to try a couple of other flavors. I love that it is a 1% For The Planet company.

Love these bubbly drinks for mocktails since I don’t drink. They also go great with adding your favorite liquor for those who prefer alcohol. Yuzu lime and jalapeño blood orange are my favorite flavors.

Love the AVEC mixers, I first received a pack when they first launched for a cocktail Instagram account I used to run. I also enjoyed drinking them while I was pregnant with my son and really missing cocktails.

This was a tasty drink - I had it on its own rather than with a mixed with alcohol. The jalapeno and blood orange combination was unique and flavorful, but the cost of 4 cans was almost $10. Too expensive for what it was.

Found this brand via the shelf at Boisson and love the unique pairings with their recent one being Fuji Apple & Cardamom! I tend to gravitate towards tart, fruity, not so sweet flavors and the Grapefruit & Pomelo is my tried and true, which I know can't do me wrong and mixes beautifully with either seltzer water or Ghia. I can't wait to try their other flavors like Yuzu & Lime, Spiced Mango & Passionfruit.

Pleasantly surprised by this brand! I’ve used them in mocktails and as mixers with alcohol. Served to friends who also loved. I’m a big fan of the flavors as well and will absolutely purchase these again.

I tried AVEC drink mixers recently and found that they don’t taste great on their own—something about the flavor just didn’t hit the mark for me. They're also a bit on the pricey side, which made me hesitant at first. That said, I can see how they’d work well as a mixer. They likely add a nice touch of carbonation and could enhance the flavor of other drinks, especially when paired with spirits or fruit juice. I wouldn’t sip them solo, but they might shine in the right cocktail.

Love AVEC. So far, I have tried it by itself. The flavor I chose is Spiced Mango and Passionfruit. The carbonation is good and the flavor is delightful and most enjoyable. Tastes very tropical with spice. This flavor also contains a dash of almond. I am eager to try it mixed with non-alcoholic spirit, as well as other AVEC flavors. I love that it's made with real juice and botanicals, as well, it contains 0mg of sodium and is low in sugar.

Tried these awhile ago, the Yuzu Lime flavor specifically and overall it's a solid product! I don't drink alcohol so I used mine for a mocktail and while in my opinion it was a little light in flavor, I still recommend it. Makes for a refreshing drink! A little on the pricier side given the size as well.

I expected more from this drink. It’s ok, but nothing special. It’s not so rich flavor, but lemon taste is right it should be, not so sour. I think it’s too pricy.

AVEC's Yuzu & Lime mixer? Let me tell you, it’s a breath of fresh air. The citrus combo hits the spot - not overly tart, just the right balance. Mixing it up, whether with spirits or a simple soda water, gives your drink a zingy lift. What stands out is its natural taste, no fake stuff. It's like a burst of real fruit in every sip. If you're into genuine flavors, this one's a game-changer for your drinks. Cheers to that! 🍋🌿

These non-alcoholic drinks were so refreshing! It didn't even need any ice. I would definitely buy them for future fancy-ish parties for those who opt-out of alcoholic beverages. They are on the pricey side tho.

I bought Fuji apple and cardamom. I don’t like the flavor as it doesn’t have any of listed taste. The carbonation is weak

Mild, refreshing beverage, not overly sweet. Would have preferred a stronger apple 'oomph'. Would work better in a mixed drink than on its own.

This is amazing! Very fresh and fruity, Avec doesn't taste artificial but has a nice, natural flavor that complements the alcohol you add. I used vodka, and this mixed with their grapefruit can is wonderful. Can't wait for spring when I can drink this outside.

I loved trying out Avec's carbonated mixer. I got a 4 pack of the Spiced Mango & Passionfruit. I drank the first can as is and found it flavorful yet not too sweet; you could definitely taste the "dash of almond" too which I appreciated. I tried another can with added Malibu, the mix of the mango/passionfruit with Malibu's coconut flavor was delicious and I highly recommend it. I love that Avec's ingredients are all natural and that it's low in calories. I can't wait to try other flavors! I would love to have this product accessible at my local grocery stores instead of specifically having to go to Binny's to purchase it (as I don't go there anywhere near as often).
