I would use the first 2 possibilities.
#3 makes it so B is the only alternative, so it would work if there are no other options
“B is the alternative way to say A.”
Instead of “alternative” it’s more natural to say “another” and “a different” (when speaking, with writing “alternative” is more academic):
“B is another [a different] way to say A.”
“In other words, A is like B or C.”
“B is another way to say A and C.”
