True to the name. If you enjoy mint teas, give it a whirl.
This wonderfully smooth, minty treat that will fill you with a warm Christmas spirit and leave you jolly. There's no need to wait for a visit from Old Saint Nick to enjoy this yuletide favorite.

True to the name. If you enjoy mint teas, give it a whirl.
Candy cane comes out of the gates with great flavor but then the aftertaste brings it down. As it gets cooler, it starts to be not as tasteful. I think the black tea begins to overpower the mint--which is weird bc mint is usually stronger.
Prepare yourself for the best mint tea you will ever drink.
This one was good, but it was not my favorite. I was very different.
This tea wasn't horrible, but it also wasn't great. I appreciated the candy cane pieces, and the smell is amazing. Brewed up, however, I found that it tasted a little bit bland/artificial.
I first ordered this around the holidays but my daughter and I enjoyed it so much we are still drinking it in the Spring! It has bits of candy cane crushed into it which really enhance the flavor.
I didn't like this. It has a really strange smell.
Very minty and tastes like candy cane. The flavor is strong and pleasant.
This is my favorite tea all year round! I prefer to make my cup slightly stronger than suggested to get a more powerful punch of candy cane minty goodness.
This tea is wonderful. Great hot in the winter or so refreshing when served iced in the Summer. TRY IT TODAY!
This tea makes me happy. Even in March, it's a great tea!
This is a fun flavor! It really does taste like candy cane, the flavor is a bit subtle though, not too strong.
Honestly, not the hugest fan. I was expecting more peppermint.
I was so surprised at the flavor of this tea. It is excellent, and I will be purchasing more. Highly recommend this. Great smell also, and you just want to relax.
This was an interesting change from my normal green tea. Not something I'd drink routinly but nice once in a while.
I first tried it on its own and the peppermint was very strong (and I like peppermint). I also tried mixing it with other tea flavors, but can't find any I like it mixed with. I will be giving this tea away if I can find someone that likes it.
This is one of my absolute favorites! I love peppermint, and this tastes so minty and fresh. It's a great tea to drink before bed, very soothing.
Taste just like candy canes!!! Awesome tea, and I don't even have to add any sugar.
Kind of a creamy flavor, works really well with milk.
Not bad. I would recommend this tea to everyone!!!
Candycanes and black tea. Gives a plain black tea the extra little something that it needs.
There is a vanilla flavor in this that is slightly heavy, which causes a candy corn scent, but other than that it is amazing!
I love anything mint so I knew I was going to love this tea. My only complaint is that the mint isn't strong enough for me, but I like things SUPER minty, so this is probably perfect for everyone else.
I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this one. I picked it up on a whim and I have been drinking it both hot and cold. The mint is strong of course, but there is almost a sweetness to the tea to go with it.
great combination of peppermint flavor with the richness of black tea.
This tastes like a candy cane, and is wonderful hot during winter.
A good change of pace! Loved the sweetness. Not an every day tea for me, definitely seasonal. I took some to work and had people fighting over to try it. Hey! Get your own!
A must mix with chocolate tea to make a great combo tea
This holiday blend was nice, but I suppose I was expecting more potency from the candy cane pieces. There's definitely a peppermint presence, but to me, the sweetness wasn't there. Next Christmas I'll have to try floating a whole candy cane in my teacup!
At Xmas time there is no better tea than this one. Another great affect is the calming effect it has on the stomach when it is upset
Possibly my new favorite tea - I agree with the other reviewers who say this actually does taste like a candy cane rather than just a mint tea.
Great Holliday tea or wvery day tea depending on your preference
I thought it was a perfect tea for the holiday season! The best way I drank it was with a little bit of honey. It also had a great pepperminty aftertaste, reminded me of eating a candy cane. (How appropriate!)
I really did like the slightly minty flavor and smell!
This is my favorite new tea. Is there a way to get the nutritional information for this tea? It contains actual pieces of candy so I assume sugar.
Decaf version would be much appreciated!!
this is my absolute favorite. going to order more ASAP in case its seasonal! It absolutely needs sugar though!
I like this tea so much I don't wait for the holidays to drink it, I drink it all year long.
It's like eating a candy cane but also with a warm and cozy feeling.
Not my favorite, but great when you have a need for something to settle the stomach.
This tea was pretty good for a flavored tea. Peppermint flavor was not too overpowering.
Not quite what I was expecting - ended up almost sickly-sweet, and not as minty as I'd hoped. An interesting experiment, but I don't think I'll try this one again.
My all time favorite tea - for winter and summer and all year around
Perfect holiday season/winter month blend of tea. Candy cane anything I'm a fan of and this blend does it well.
It's not really a great tea. It's not terrible either. The peppermint taste is a little artificial.
The perfect blend of peppermint and black tea. I LOVE peppermint tea, however I try to limit it because of the menthol it naturally contains. This option makes it so I can have a lot more of my favorite flavor. I have a lot of stomach issues so peppermint/spearmint is always my go to. This is going to be a favorite of mine for a long time to come.
The first time I opened the sample packet of Candy Cane tea, I honestly flinched at the strong minty scent. Despite knowing that the flavored teas are usually strongly flavored, I somehow didn't expect it from this one!
I ordered it because I've been crazy about mint-hot cocoa, but I can't drink much cocoa, so decided to get my mint fix elsewhere. The second time I opened the pouch to actually make a cup, I knew what to expect, and it simply smelled delicious. I ended up using 1 part Candy Cane to 2 parts Decaf Ceylon, and it is nicely peppermint without being overpoweringly so.
It doesn't quite hit that mint-cocoa craving, but then, tea and cocoa are very different beasts! It is good for what it is, and something I'll keep around for when I'm in the mood.
Reflects its name in taste and smell. Sweet enough so no additional items needed. Christmas in a cup!
Tasted pretty good. I would definitely drink it again. Maybe using a peppermint stick as a stir stick like some other people have suggested.
I've always liked mint teas, but this was my first time having a black tea with mint notes. It was delicious, and a big hit at the library's Winter Garden Tea Party, where everyone wanted to try it. The tea is a bit sweet and very pleasant - I really enjoyed it.
Christmas in your mouth...
