Pavari 17 is a non-alcoholic Mediterranean aperitivo made by DioniLife, an exclusively non-alcoholic drinks portfolio company founded in 2024 and based in Denver, Colorado, led by CEO Damian McKinney and Chief of Innovation Steve Wilson and backed by investment group Invus. The aperitivo launched in 2025 alongside DioniLife's non-alcoholic tequila brand, La Borosa, debuting the company's portfolio across Denver before a planned wider rollout.

The drink is built from a non-alcoholic Mediterranean white-wine base infused with 17 all-natural botanicals sourced from the hillsides of Italy and Spain — including bittersweet orange peel, cinchona bark, gentian root, cardamom and black pepper — to produce a bright, bittersweet profile that balances sweet citrus against gentle bitter undertones. It contains 0.5% ABV or less, is positioned as low in sugar and calories (about 22 calories per serving), and is vegan and gluten-free.

Pavari 17 is sold as a 700ml (70cl) aperitivo bottle, intended to be served over ice or topped with soda for a spritz, and as a 250ml ready-to-drink Pavari 17 Spritz. The brand earned a Gold Medal (91 points) and was named "Non-Alcoholic of the Year" at the 2025 USA Spirits Ratings.
