John Lewis launches cocktail advent calendar with 24 tinnies, including Espresso Martini, Mojitos and more
It's back for a fifth year running, featuring a new range of pre-mixed cocktails.
Kicking things off bright and early this year as far as boozy advent calendars go, is John Lewis's Cocktail Advent Calendar — back for a fifth year running, and featuring a new range of pre-mixed cocktails.
The first of an anticipated fleet of food, drink and beauty iterations, the popular advent is the perfect choice if you love to drink cocktails all-year-round, but especially at Christmas.
Inside, it comes with a mix of 24 cans and bottles of premium, pre-mixed cocktails, each carefully chosen (and tasted) by the team at John Lewis, with highlights from the likes of Moth Cocktails, Funkin and East London Liquor Co.
Enjoy a total of 24 pre-mixed, premium cocktails every single day in December.
Popular year after year, it costs £125 and is the ultimate way to discover new cocktails and mixes without having to journey all the way to your nearest supermarket, and slog back bottles of spirits, syrups and soft drinks.
We particularly love the idea of tasting classics Margarita, Bramble and Pornstar Martini, alongside unique takes on traditional cocktails like Matcha Mojito, Blue Raspberry Martini and Key Lime Mojito Fizz.
