Acceptable colours for mint sweets: white, black and white, blue, blue and white, a sort of greeny-blue, greey-blue stripes.

Red and white? Goodness, no that's a fruit sweet!

Peppermint is white. Chocolate covered peppermint is yummy. I mean brown on white and packaged green. I never see green or pink peppermint creme although there probably is.

Packaging can be green if it's tea and blue if it's mints like the ones in the rolls. Peppermint gum is white packaged blue.

Mint ice cream is green. Peppermint ice cream is pink.

That candy cane color is well you know white with pink stripes. Prior to the 1900 peppermint candy canes were all white.

I hate starlight mints..they look like a candy cane. I don't like candy canes unless they are the soft natural peppermint ones which are all white.

I can see how a kid will think pink stripes is a festive Christmas color dubbed peppermint but in Easter the color of peppermint
( or mint )changes to green.

Weird? No, it means you're an individual.

Some are collectives, aggregates, while others are distilled essences.:p

Red and White.

The Color of proper Candy Canes and those round swirl mints that are wrapped in plastic twisted on each end. I don't hold with this new-fangled colored stuff, although I do sometimes like the fruit-flavored more colorful candy canes. But if you get the red and white you know where you stand. Pepperminty goodness.
