The Best Food and Drink Advent Calendars 2021

The best advent calendars for epicureans will help fuel a month of festive activities, holiday gatherings, quiet fire-side chats and more. Sure, it's early November and you just put the skeletons back in the closet and have a sagging jack-o-lantern decomposing on the porch. Still, unless you act fast, you'll be choking down waxy chocolates from a run-of-the-mill advent calendar instead of jumping for joy each morning at these enviable delights.

For those who hold fast to classics, there are chocolates galore. Coffee from around the globe, cocktails and wine make perfect gifts for those looking for inspired sips. From sweet to savoury, for early mornings or happy hours, these advent calendars are hiding the treats you'll want to enjoy this December.

Gourmet goodies define the season, so start on the 1st with something delicious and don't look back. Day after day, you'll be rewarded with a moment of merriment in keeping with your happy holiday mood.
