Gourmet Tea, Coffee & Hot Chocolate Advent Calendars For 2023
In this article:
What better way to keep warm this December than to treat yourself to a new brew. Whether you love curling up on the sofa with a fragrant tea, a flavoursome coffee, or an indulgent hot chocolate, these hot drink advent calendars have you covered.
If you’re fed up with your daily cuppa, then these tea advent calendars will introduce you to warming new flavours. You’ll get a new tea bag each day, perhaps allowing you to try some fruity and herbal teas you might not have tried before. If coffee is your vice, there’s plenty of choice here. Opt for the connoisseurs option with speciality coffees from around the world, or choose flavoured coffee sachets. Personally, we’re fans of the hot chocolate advent calendars that furnish us with white chocolate, milk chocolate and dark chocolate sachets, often flavoured with comforting notes of salted caramel, sticky toffee, mint, and festive spices. Just add the milk and marshmallows for a mug of pure joy.
We’ve rounded up the best tea, coffee and hot chocolate advent calendars to keep foodies happy this December.
