Aldi £13 cocktail advent calendar rivals £79 version

Aldi is launching its Infusionist Cocktail Advent Calendar for £12.99, offering a budget-friendly alternative to premium pre-mixed drinks brands this Christmas. The calendar arrives in stores nationwide on Sunday, October 25, while stocks last.

For comparison, ready-to-drink brand Moth released its own 24-day cocktail advent calendar at £79, making Aldi's version nearly £66 cheaper.

What's inside the calendar

Behind each door of the Infusionist advent calendar, shoppers will find a mix of 125ml ready-to-drink canned cocktails and chocolate truffles. Featured drinks include Spicy Margarita, Espresso Martini, and Passion Fruit Martini, each in 125ml cans.

Alongside the cocktail release, Aldi is bringing back its Ballycastle Country Cream Advent Calendar, also priced at £12.99. The creamy alternative includes 50ml measures of Classic Country Cream, White Chocolate Cream, and Chocolate, Hazelnut and Caramel Cream, along with newly added chocolate truffles.

Other festive returns

Both festive calendars will be available strictly while stocks last in Aldi middle aisles starting this Sunday. Aldi is also set to bring back its Hotel Collection Candle Advent Calendar (£24.99) on October 25, featuring a gingerbread house-inspired design that leans into the nostalgic Christmas trend.

The candle calendar contains 25 individual 50g candles, offering a daily dose of seasonal fragrance throughout December. Scents include Warm Gingerbread, Hot Cocoa, Frosted Fir, White Christmas, Cinnamon Spice, and Iced Berries. Each candle provides up to eight hours of burn time, and the calendars will be available in stores nationwide while stocks last.
