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.

I tried the Jalapeño Blood Orange flavor. I wouldn’t describe this as a mocktail, but instead as a slightly elevated sparkling water. The jalapeño taste does come through strongly, but I didn’t find it to have such a sophisticated taste that I’d choose it over other mixers, nor was I inclined to drink it on its own.

I really liked AVEC. I loved the taste and the packaging was very aesthetically pleasing. I chose it as an BA option, but could see how it could be used as just NA or with alcohol. The high price point was kind of disappointing, but I think for special occasions I would buy this again

These mixers were so good - both on their own and with the addition of alcohol!

I don't know if I picked an unfortunate flavor or if it's better with alcohol, but the Grapefruit & Pomelo flavor was bland and almost bitter. I couldn't detect any of the sweet pomelo or bright grapefruit notes that I expected. It was more of a generic citrus flavor. I had two other members of my household try it and it was a let down. It isn' so bad that I didn't drink it, but I would not recommend. I do like the concept and I expect that the other flavors are better.

Loved this! Enjoyed it on its own, as well as paired with mezcal. The flavor was pleasant solo, but really sung when paired. Eager to try the other flavors - just wish it came in a variety pack!

I love Avec! I found them at my local store a few months ago and have been hooked ever since. My favorite flavor is the Yuzu Lime

A really wonderful mocktail in a can. Love how the flavors are more spicy and savory vs the overly sweet mocktails I’m used to. Only complaint is the price - $10 for 4 cans is pretty steep

These are so different and convenient for going to parties and other gatherings! I tried the new Fuji apple flavor and it paired well with both vodka and whiskey. Everyone who tried my drink asked what was in it!

I tried the apple cardamom flavor which was delicious and unique. I enjoyed the sparkling quality of the beverage and plan to try it next with whiskey.

Been obsessed with AVEC for a few years now. Love how many flavors they have, and how well they mix with spirits (especially tequila!!). I do drink them solo too, just over ice as a non-alc drink. I love the branding and packaging too!

I absolutely love the Jalapeño & Blood Orange flavor! I picked it up on a grocery run to Sprouts which was convenient. It’s delicious alone on ice to enjoy as a zesty, low-cal mocktail (truly helps get me through a long workday). What I loved is that for nights I’m drinking, it pairs well with my favorite mezcal or blanco tequila! Highly recommend if you’re looking to cut both sugar or alcohol

I loveee the Hibiscus & Pomegranate. It is so tart and pretty color without any nasty stuff in the juice. It is so good with vodka but sometimes in the day I will just drink an AVEC instead of a soda when I'm craving something different than water or seltzer. Def recommend!!!

Loved the packaging on the can, the matte pink was slick and had a nice touch to it. I enjoyed the mix of the floral & sweet but with only 4g of sugar it was a refreshing mix to our vodka soda drinks we make. Only tip would be to explore supporting flavors to dress it up to feel more of a premium cocktail (ie. botanicals, herbs, etc) something that adds to a bit of the elevated experience.

I love grapefruit, and it isn’t one of my favorite fruit flavors much. But I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this grapefruit and pomelo sparkling cocktail when I mixed it with root beer. Because the flavor didn't really grab me.
