Take off the negative battery cable and hook a test light in between the cable and the battery post. If you have a drain, the light will be on.

If the light goes off then, the alt is bad,.

Then you can trouble shoot that circuit. May be concealed light i.e. glove box is left on. Could also be voltage regulator circuit is not opening when vehicle is shut down.
