Peppermint mocha colour palette: Christmas coffee hex codes for your planner

Mocha, peppermint red, candy pink and whipped cream. The December coffee order, with the candy cane crushed on top.

Where each colour goes

Colour	Hex	Use it for
Work (mocha)	#3E2419	Work blocks, in a dark mocha
Health (peppermint red)	#94122B	Walks and winter air, in peppermint red
Personal (candy pink)	#F2B5B5	Parties, cards and wrapping, in candy pink
Goals (whipped cream)	#FBF6EF	What you want done before the year ends, in whipped-cream white

Coffee first, candy second

Mocha does most of the work, so the week looks grown-up. Red and pink are the peppermint: they’re bright, so they’re kept for the shorter blocks. It says Christmas without a single green.

Your week in peppermint mocha

The week at the top of this post is a real week in Anser, in the Summer Picnic style with the Bold look for categories, so every event shows its full colour. To get the same look, open Settings › Appearance › Colours › How categories look and choose Bold. The palette works in every style.

A December week, with coffee

• Order the seasonal drink once. Then go back to your usual.
• Write the cards with a coffee, not at midnight.
• Buy one present a day this week. It adds up.
• Leave Friday evening free.
