Reviews mention

  • Complex cocktail‑style flavor
  • Elegant packaging design
  • Refreshing carbonation profile
  • Organic agave ingredient
  • Occasionally overly sweet flavor
  • Inconsistent flavor balance
  • Limited flavor variety
  • Uncertain adaptogen effect

PARCH reviews assert the brand works as a sophisticated non‑alcoholic cocktail: reviewers praise complex, cocktail‑like flavors and elegant packaging but note inconsistent sweetness and occasional overly sweet or one‑note cans. The drinks consistently impress as evening substitutes (smoky Spiced Pinarita; tart Prickly Paloma), yet several reviewers want lower sugar options and more balanced sweetness before repurchasing every flavor.

  • I love the Desert Margarita, such great choice for those who liked margaritas in their drinking days. I do want to add some NA tequila to it and see how that is! Its not too sweet, and its refreshing. My dad who does drink enjoyed it! I do not like the jalapeño pineapple flavor, it was too savory for my family and I. I have yet to taste the prickly pear, but its on my list!

  • I tried both the prickly pear paloma and the spicy pinarita and loved both of them. I’m a huge tequila cocktail girl, and really enjoyed these NA alternatives. They’re flavorful and don’t just taste like juice, as a lot of NA options can tend to lean. I’m super excited to see great non-alcoholic options like PARCH, and will definitely be reaching for the pinaritas again and keeping and eye out for new flavors!

  • By far my favorite non alcoholic drink that I will spend the dollary doos on. Here’s the thing, lots of non alcoholic drinks taste either like nothing or weird and bitter but not this one. I am a mixer, I tend to mix my drinks with other drinks to improve them. Iykyk. But I don’t have to do this with parch. My only issue is I can’t find this at my local grocery store and I really hope that changes!!!

  • I've tried quite a few NA options, and Parch is unique and worth it in a market with too many overpriced sparkling waters. The Prickly pear is incredibly tasty and unlike anything I've tasted before. I can't confidently say that the adaptogens do much. Give Parch a try this Dry January! I hope they come out with more flavors soon.

  • Absolutely stellar flavors, unique and fun. Great brand, high quality.

  • I LOVE PARCH! This is the first non-alcoholic beverage I have tried that actually makes me feel relaxed! The flavor is great and I have repurchased several times.

  • PARCH is a local hero around here! (You can probably figure out where I'm writing from ... 🏜️) I had high hopes for this local company, and not to say I don't love the spiced piñarita (I absolutely love a smokey alcoholic cocktail) but after a couple sips I found it a little too sweet to drink long into the night. I'd like to give it another shot (pun intended) with perhaps a little more crushed ice instead of cubed, and perhaps a little more of my own lime juice added.

  • I’m 8 years sober and this is my go to NA! The flavors are delicious and I could drink a lot if I feel like it. Every time I bring them to a party they get snatched up immediately. I also love the branding and packaging!

  • I was really impressed with the complex flavors of these drinks, particularly that they are not too sweet. I'm not a big soda or juice drinker and most NA drinks or pre-made cocktails taste overly sweet and artificial. Not so with these! Completely defeating the NA purpose of these, I added liquor, making them taste like high-quality professionally mixed cocktails. I added tequila to the Spice Pinarita; this one was a little *too* smoky for my taste, but I still enjoyed it and if you like a smoky drink you'll love this. And Prickly Paloma got a shot of gin. DELICIOUS!

    Delicious adult beverage, with or without booze. Complex, not too sweet flavors. I really have no negative feedback other than I wish they were less expensive and easier to get.

  • Parch is a great product and I love it. Even though it's non-alcoholic, it relaxes me at the end of a long day when I'm craving a cocktail. The plus is no hangover the day after. I add Aperol to Parch if I want a cocktail with a little alcohol. Aperol tastes great with both Prickly Paloma and Spiced Pinarita. Great job Team Parch!

  • Parch has a very unique taste - it actually sips like a real cocktail. Over ice, it has the complexity and smokiness of the best NYC cocktail lounge drinks which I haven’t found in any other NA competitors.

    I’d like to see even lower sugar options and even more flavors!

  • Really enjoy drinking this and actually do feel like it substitutes for evening cocktail or wine.

    Feedback

    Have had a hard time embracing non alc. But with Parch I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor. Not too sweet and not too acidic, with a nice depth, taste, and the right carbonation. Became something I look forward to drinking!

  • Both flavors have been a hit at our holiday parties this year, providing a proper grown up non-alc option. Packaging is beautiful and the flavor profiles are both really interesting in the own way. The spiced pinarita is my favorite, I love the smokey pineapple, but the prickly paloma is also delicious. Highly recommend.

  • What a relaxing, enjoyable drinking experience! These beverages are complex and interesting, unlike others I’ve tried which seem more like soda alternatives.

  • Parch is the best non-alcoholic cocktail I've had. It has so much more intrigue than typical offerings which in my experience tend to be disgustingly sweet and unimaginative. Thrilled to have found something tastier & healthier to enjoy when I want to forego alcohol vs gross sugar water. Love the packaging too.

  • Parch is an excellent beverage. Delicious, refreshing and exciting to drink. Parch is both sophisticated and nuanced which sets it above any other non-alc that I have tried. Hats off to the Parch team.

    Parch branding is lit - aesthetically a great addition to your fridge.

  • We love Parch !! We had a party where we wanted a delicious and festive non-alcoholic option and Parch ticked all of those boxes. We will never have a party again without Parch being part of our bar. And the packaging is chic!

  • Such an interesting and balanced mix of flavors. It’s rare to come across a drink this complex and complete yet pours out of a can. Fills a gap. Too often I want a nice cocktail, but just don’t want the alcohol, something too sweet, nor do I want to make it myself. I go back and forth on which of the two flavors I like better, I think they both have their place.

    I first balked at the price but when comparing with other non-alcoholic canned beverages I’ve tried it’s easily on a higher level that can command the premium.
