Kit Kat’s New Peppermint Stick Flavor
This holiday season, Kit Kat fans in the U.S. are in for a treat. The Peppermint Stick Kit Kat, previously only available in Australia, is finally hitting American shelves. Each bar features a peppermint-flavored white chocolate crème with crunchy candy bits, delivering a festive, sweet, and slightly minty bite perfect for the holidays.
Why Fans Are Excited
Candy lovers have long begged Kit Kat for international flavors, and the Peppermint Stick does not disappoint. Reddit users and TikTok reviewers say the peppermint is strong but not overwhelming, paired perfectly with creamy white chocolate. Fans call it “divine” and say they can’t wait to try it, making it one of the most anticipated seasonal treats.

Tips for Enjoying the Peppermint Stick Kit Kat
The Peppermint Stick bars come in the familiar four-bar format, perfect for sharing or holiday gifting. Pair it with hot chocolate, sprinkle over desserts, or enjoy it straight from the wrapper. Limited availability means stocking up is wise. For the ultimate holiday indulgence, freeze a few bars and enjoy them as a cool treat later.
Where to Buy and What to Expect
Expect to find the Peppermint Stick Kit Kat at major U.S. retailers by mid-October. Unlike the Australian version sold in packs of 18, these four-bar packs make it easy to enjoy without overindulging. Fans can also anticipate more international flavors in the future, such as Orange Chocolate, Biscoff, or Strawberry, but this festive flavor is a great holiday starter.
