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.

  • Awesome non alcoholic cocktail! Loved the hibiscus flavor. Drank as a mocktail and also added Prosecco for a fabulous cocktail. Would buy again!

  • Strong taste but I love drinking it on its own

  • Tried the Jalapeño & Blood Orange and it was... fine. Nothing super special. We mixed it with tequila, but the flavor didn't really grab us. The jalapeño was super mild and it felt like the flavor profile was lacking a bit. Could benefit from some salt or fruit or something to zhuzh it up.

  • my favorite is the hibiscus & pom flavor. Keep it nice and cold and serve it with a splash of bubbly water. My perfect summer drink!

  • I received a free 4 pack to test, and really enjoyed these. They are fully flavored, aromatic, bitter, and not too sweet. I love them on their own as a special treat but you can add alcohol to them as well.

  • A bit pricey for what's basically juice. Not very much in a can; not a bad flavor, just not much to it either. would prob be better if drank w alcohol as I had it plain

  • Very delicious, complex sparking drinks that are great standalone or when mixed with non-alcoholic or alcohol-containing spirits. I tried the Mango/passionfruit, jalapeno/blood orange, and grapefruit/pomelo. I like them all. I really wanted to try Ginger, but was not available in my local store. The positives are they are made using real food ingredients, are low calorie, and contain much less sugar any other soda; contain no artificial sweeteners; and are complex and juicy flavors. The only bad point is availability and price, which I hope improve with time and demand.

  • Tried the Yuzu and Lime mixer, and it was just meh. Has a decent bubble factor, but wish the flavor was a bit stronger. Maybe the other flavors are better?

  • I really like the idea and the flavors sound great.

    Feedback

    I was drinking it raw (no booze) which I wouldn't advise.

  • Okay, I need to try every single flavor of this because I tried two flavors so far (the mango + grapefruit) and I lost my mind over them. I'm big into NA drinks and this really has a special flavor that feels complex. Big fan!!

  • Taste was mild alone but good once added to other drink elements

  • Light refreshing drink! Not a bad option but there are other similar drinks I prefer taste wise.

  • This seltzer was surprisingly flavorful and good. I used it to make a mixed cocktail and it made a quick & high quality drink from home.

  • Good flavor though pretty mild. I wish the jalapeno one was spicier.

  • Tried the Jalapeno & Blood Orange & Ginger flavors. Don't think they were strong enough in taste to compliment alcohol but tasted pretty good as a sparkling water.

  • Avec is a very tasty mixer and it is also great by itself I you want to create non-achohol drink. I was very happy that it did not have a lot of extra sugar added to the drink.

  • I tried the Yuzu and Lime with vodka and ice, and it was delicious!! It tasted like a Moscow Mule you might buy at a fancy cocktail bar. Love that it’s sugar free and used organic lime juice. Not overly sweet- exotic and refreshing. These are great for hosting friends at home. Would love to try the other flavors.

  • I tried the Hibiscus flavor and while it was good, I usually prefer my drinks to be a little sweeter!
