Reviews mention

  • Natural ingredients, clean taste
  • Distinct, inventive flavor pairings
  • Light, refreshing carbonation
  • Low-sugar, guilt-free profiles
  • Occasionally weak flavor intensity
  • Bitterness in citrus varieties
  • Spice level inconsistently balanced
  • Doesn’t always complement dry spirits

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 had a chance to try AVEC's jalepeno and blood orange mixer. I really enjoyed the flavor - it was refreshing, had a bit of a kick, and did not taste sugary as most drink mixers do.

  • I often look for new innovative beverages to use as cocktail mixers. AVEC contains natural ingredients and has a very light flavoring. The cans are smaller than I had expected, however, the taste out weighs the can. I've been drinking it instead of soda. I haven't tried it as a mixer yet, but plan to. Not as bubbly as I had expected.

  • Unfortunately I didn't love this drink. I used it as a substitute for ginger beer as part of a Mule and it was too potent for my liking; I needed to dilute with Sprite to enjoy.

  • I tried the jalapeño flavor and it was a bit strong for my Liking. Definitely would not drink this by itself.

  • I tried the mango passion flavor and really enjoyed it. What I enjoyed most was the simple ingredient list and low sugar content. Each can was slightly more than $2 which I thought was a fair price. Avec was super easy to find, which was a plus. Fun for dry January!

  • I really liked the Fuji Apple and Cardamom flavor that I bought. It was tangy as well as sweet. I first enjoyed it straight and then mixed it with Tito’s for a delicious evening delight!

  • I tried the Blood Orange and Jalapeño flavor on its own over ice. It was very mild and didn’t pack much of a punch. I like that it’s a low calorie and low sugar drink, but wish the flavor was more potent.

  • This was pretty good for Dry January, but the Mango & Passionfruit is wayy better imo!

  • I really enjoyed the grapefruit & pomelo beverage. I drank a bit of it alone and added some to prosecco and it had a nice flavor without being sweet. I thought it was pretty reasonably priced compared to other mixers. Love the packaging and the name!

  • I got the spiced mango and passion fruit flavor and would drink them at parties while marathon training. It’s the perfect drink to use as a mocktail and isn’t just seltzer! The addition of almond extract is also very interesting and adds a great flavor profile. It’s a bit expensive, but I’d certainly get it again for a special occasion.
