Trader Joe’s Serves Sparkling Green Tea with Pineapple for Summer
What do you get when you infuse earthy green tea with a splash of vibrant pineapple juice and an abundance of invigorating bubbles? You get Trader Joe’s private brand Sparkling Green Tea with Pineapple Juice Beverage. Pleasingly pineapple-y, ultra-fizzy, and subtly sweet, this bold beverage sips like a sparkling summer afternoon.

Trader Joe’s Announces Milkshake Contest Winners!
Iconic private brand grocer Trader Joe's asked customers to create a shake using five TJ’s private brand ingredients, and to post a photo on Instagram for a chance to win up to $200 in TJ’s Gift Cards. So of course the retailers fans churned out some legen-dairy (and non-dairy) recipes that were far from homogenized, with inventive ingredients, such as goat cheese, seaweed, jalapeños, and Alfredo sauce. (Explore them all on Instagram at #TJsMilkshakeContest.) But the Trader Joe's team couldn’t just kowtow to creativity with photos and taste to consider. So taste, they did, and the cream rose to the

Trader Joes Celebrates with Everything And the Elote Dip
Just as it says on the jar, Trader Joe's certified spice sensation Everything But The Elote Seasoning Blend offers all the flavors of a classic, freshly grilled elote (Mexican street corn), just without the corn that normally carries them. So when the time came to infuse those flavors into a tangy yogurt dip, we got to thinking: why not add the corn and season it, too? Boldly flavored with garlic, Parmesan, and chipotle pepper powder, and featuring toothsome kernels of sweet yellow corn, Trader Joe’s Everything And The Elote Greek Style Yogurt Dip truly lets shoppers have it all. As
