Reviews mention

  • Complex bitter-herbal flavor
  • Elegant premium packaging
  • Convincing cocktail experience
  • Convenient canned spritz options
  • Overly bitter taste for many
  • Sediment and murky appearance
  • Short open-bottle shelf life
  • Similar-tasting canned flavors

Ghia earns polarized reviews: devotees praise its complex, bitter-herbal profile that convincingly replicates aperitivo cocktails—especially Le Spritz, Ginger, and Lime & Salt—along with standout packaging and a true “cocktail ritual” without sweetness. Detractors find many flavors too bitter, perfumey, or kombucha-like, with some noting flavor sameness, murky appearance/sediment, short shelf life once opened, and no noticeable mood effects.

  • NA gang stand up. Sometimes it like I’m at a party full of cool people and I want to feel superior so I bring this fancy NA shit and people love it. It tastes cool too so it’s good.

  • Super tasty - I have started subbing Ghia over ice in the place of a soda or a bubble water. Feels more elegant and a bit more unique!

    Verified purchase

  • Love Ghia. Ghia knows what’s up. Friend and guest of the Wear Many Hats podcast, Ian Shiver, shot most of their campaign and that’s what started this glittering food trend. Overall amazing taste.

    Would buy over and over again along with having at pop ups etc.

  • Great product, excellent flavor and fun packaging. Love the RTD cans as well as the larger format bottles. Tastes great with endless mixing possibilities

  • Gorgeous branding and an exciting new option for those looking for an alcohol alternative. It can also be used as a mixer, versatile at any party or on a bar cart. The cans are an excellent ready-to-drink option that makes a good accompaniment to any meal. It is indeed quite bitter, worth knowing before cracking into one, kinda like Campari's younger, more spiritual little sister.

    Feedback

    The lime and salt was not my favorite, true to its salty name.

  • LOVE GHIA!! I had heard that it was super bitter, too bitter - but it's not. Its perfect. Its the only NA drink I've found that feels astringent like alcohol does. Love all the flavors and the packaging!

  • Definitely a specific taste, bitter and tart, so I can't imagine everyone enjoying these. However if you are used to an apretivo and are looking for a NA option Ghia is a great choice! I particularly like the lime.

  • Their apperitif is so freaking good! I mix it with orange juice and sparkling water and it’s a HIT. Can’t wait to try their recipes!

    The price is a lil steep but the flavor is magical for me!

  • Really great tasting. I also love the branding and really does feel like a replacement for a drink.

  • I had a soda from Ghia and enjoyed it. Good to have a sober option to keep in the hand.

    Feedback

    Packaging (can wrapper) could feel more premium at least with design/graphics.

  • The Salt & Lime Le Spritz was amazing! It's very refreshing on it's own or great to add into cocktails. The typical price point of the product itself is pretty high, but it's definitely a great stand-out item for the bar cart.

    Feedback

    Love the products, but the price point is pretty high.

  • Really flavorful and surprisingly complex non-alcoholic spritzer that's an upgrade from the classic "soda and bitters" order at the bar. Packaging is cute and while the cans are small, they're also just as good diluted with some soda water.

  • I really enjoyed Ghia and found myself reaching to it even past dry January! I love having it with tonic water and find the taste satisfies my cravings for a tart cocktail.

    Feedback

    Would love more flavors!

  • Not a big drinker and I love Ghia for (a) the taste and (b) because it gives me something to hold while everyone else is drinking! Makes being sober a little less lonely <3

  • Ghia wins my vote for design and taste. I love pairing this drink with a splash of Topo Chico and pineapple juice. I wish more bars/restaurants carried products like Ghia.

    Feedback

    I don't care for the spritz cans, they taste metallic. Price point is high for what is essentially a fancy juice.

  • Everything about Ghia's branding is off the charts. Truly a community I want to be part of - and it tastes good!

  • Ghia has truly transformed my socializing experience with its non-alcoholic social tonic that boasts a symphony of botanical extracts. As someone who appreciates a good drink but prefers to avoid alcohol, discovering Ghia has been a game-changer. The first thing that struck me was the enticing aroma as I opened the bottle. The blend of botanicals creates a fragrant and inviting bouquet, setting the stage for a delightful beverage experience. The taste is equally impressive – a harmonious fusion of herbs and spices that dances on the palate without the need for alcohol. What sets Ghia apart is its commitment to sophistication. The packaging is elegant and chic, making it a stylish choice for any social occasion. The versatility of Ghia as a standalone drink or a base for creative mocktails adds an extra layer of appeal. I appreciate the thoughtfulness behind Ghia's formulation. It's not just a substitute for alcoholic drinks; it's a unique and refreshing beverage in its own right. The absence of alcohol doesn't compromise the experience; instead, it enhances the social aspect, allowing everyone to partake in a sophisticated and flavorsome drink. Moreover, Ghia's dedication to using natural ingredients aligns with my desire for a healthier lifestyle. It's a guilt-free indulgence that doesn't sacrifice taste or quality. Whether you're a non-drinker, the designated driver, or simply looking for a sophisticated alternative, Ghia deserves a spot in your social repertoire. Elevate your gatherings with the botanical brilliance of Ghia – a true delight for the non-alcoholic connoisseur!
