my current favorite n/a cocktail replacement brand
I've been buying this brand since it came out a few years ago - they just finally got onto Amazon (thanks for letting me use Prime shipping finally!) So I figure I should help them out and support that decision by letting people know my opinion of the brand, which is obviously highly positive, given that I continue buying it when it is absolutely not cheap. I don't drink it *all* the time, just given the cost, but I do basically always have some at home (generally purchased during sales, like the Black Friday one that just ended).I drink *plenty* of alcoholic beverages as well, indeed, I'd say I'm a pretty big booze snob, but obviously sometimes you want drinks that do *not* have any alcohol (but taste as complex as a cocktail), also - and while I certainly haven't tried *all* of the new crop of n/a fancy canned mocktails, I've tried a decent number, and most don't really hold up, they tend to be a bit watery/not full-flavored like a real cocktail. For Bitter For Worse's products absolutely all do (though if I'm drinking it at home, I will admit, I also sometimes up the flavor by adding just a *dash* of a spirit, to add the appropriate flavor without being intoxicating. But that is by no means necessary to get a tasty cocktail-adjacent drink, either.)Anyway, of the two that are currently available in cans/on Amazon, the Rose City Fizz is one I reach for when I want a can that truly reminds me of a proper cocktail. Not any *specific* cocktail, but if I were trying it for the first time, and I'd tried it blind, I would have no trouble assuming that it was, in fact, an alcoholic gin-based drink. It definitely capture the botanical complexity you'd normally get in a gin, just sweet enough, just tart enough, the sort of drink that goes well with a variety of types of food (or just to enjoy1 by itself.) Though as I said, while by no means necessary, it's also even better with ~a quarter oz of your favorite flavorful spirit, if your reason for reaching for an n/a beverage is less religious or health reasons, more "it's lunch on a work day and I can't be intoxicated, but I really want something that tastes as good as a cocktail" reasons.The Eva's Spritz, by contrast, actually really is a spritz - not exactly an Aperol spritz, but it is definitely a spritz. They really did perfectly capture what you're looking for if you're looking for a spritz, so they named it well. To be fair, I do feel like it's easier to capture the essence of an originally lower-abv cocktail than an originally gin-based one - I've had other spritzy-like n/a canned mocktails that have been pretty enjoyable. Still think this is the best I've tried, though, hence, I keep buying it (again, especially when it's on sale.)All four of their current products are delicious, btw - I just wish they'd get all four on Amazon, and in cans! (Two of them are currently only available in 750ml bottles on their website, as of the time of this posting.)

Refreshing Drink with Depth
These really impressed me! They have a nuanced layered flavor- not overly sweet like a lot of non alcoholic drinks. Tasted like a craft cocktail from an upscale bar- without the hangover! Complemented dinner, light on calories. Definitely something I will keep on hand for school nights and my friends who don’t drink!

Explosion of flavors
Such a delightful explosion of flavors in one sip! Love both flavors ... heck I just ordered more! Can't thank you enough for making my sober free journey so much fun!

Very bitter
We had a gathering to test out mocktails for Dry January, but these were widely considered undrinkable by our entire group. Unfortunately, they were not returnable!

One is good the other not so much
These are little artisan cans that are much smaller once actually seen and held. Standard pop tops and away we go.I am more of a social drinker with the occasional glass of vino at home with dinner. I like the idea of Mocktails and non alcoholic beverages for when you genuinely want the taste of certain drinks without the alcohol.I randomly grabbed one to start with and that was Eva's Spritz. I am usually prepared to be disappointed with Mocktails but to my utter delight I was pleasantly surprised. It was VERY tasty. I went back for several sips going, "wow, this is nice!" It was so very tasty I had my wife taste test it and she very much enjoyed it too. While taste testing, we polished off the entire can.Riding that "this is surprisingly good for a Mocktail" euphoria, we cracked open the Rose City Fizz and that's where we came crashing back down to earth.It is bitter but not in a good way. It tasted like it was made with a grapefruit that was REALLY mad at me for no good reason and wanted to assault my taste buds. My wife tasted it even after watching me recoil numerous times after numerous sips and apparently the grapefruit was mad at her too. It seemed to be very....bitter.For most it won't matter, but there is a trace amount of alcohol in each can so if you're an absolute teetotaler or must avoid alcohol in any form, be wary.It is a pity the Rose City Fizz wasn't nearly as good as Eva's Spritz because that would be an easy 5 out of 5. As it stands, it is now a 3 out of 5.

Definitely Buying Again!
A friend recommended these non alcoholic cocktails since I like the ritual but not the booze every night. Wow! They are delicious! And organic and pure too. They are interesting and complex so I sipped on it, not at all like flavored seltzers that you can gulp like water. And the cans make it super easy. I drank the Eva's Spritz over ice with an orange slice, and I put the Rose City Fizz in a champagne flute with a few raspberries floating on top. I can't say which flavor I liked best. Both were great. I'm definitely buying more and will try their NA recipes for holiday entertaining.
