Key Insights
What exactly is Spearmint and why did KitchenAid choose it as the 2026 Color of the Year?
Spearmint is a soft minty-green hue with a tactile, sandy finish that KitchenAid selected as its 2026 Color of the Year. The selection process focused on colors that evoke optimism without overwhelming a space. According to KitchenAid's design team, Spearmint emerged as a standout for its versatility and ability to reflect a broader movement toward calm, restorative spaces that still feel expressive and personal. The color carries a cooling, coastal sensibility and pairs well with natural woods, brushed metals, and neutral stone surfaces, making it distinctive enough to serve as a statement piece on the countertop.
Is Spearmint available only on stand mixers, or can I get it on other KitchenAid appliances?
For the first time, KitchenAid has expanded its Color of the Year program beyond countertop appliances into the major appliance category. While Spearmint is available on the iconic KitchenAid Stand Mixer (model KSM195PSSD, MSRP $549.99), the brand is also introducing a limited-edition 36-inch Dual Fuel Commercial-Style Range in Spearmint. Five winners in a sweepstakes running February 12–26 will receive both a Spearmint Stand Mixer and the matching limited-edition commercial-style range.
