Back in 2009, we introduced our Decaffeinated Candy Cane Green Tea to significantly stronger customer response than anticipated. In other words, we ran out. Really quickly. And you were sad. And so were we. And so, we brought in more, and we sold more. And today it continues to be a highly anticipated Trader Joe’s holiday product.

What’s so special about this tea? It’s just really good. Naturally decaffeinated green tea, spiked with peppermint – except for its lack of red and white stripes and impossible-to-remove wrapper, this tea is astonishingly evocative of an actual candy cane. Served hot or cold, it’s soothing and satisfying.

Trader Joe’s Decaffeinated Candy Cane Green Tea also makes a great gift. You can add it to a gift basket or pop it in a stocking. Buy some for yourself and give the adorable, polar-bear-adorned box to your kids – kids always like the box more than what comes inside, you know.
