New Mexico Pinon Coffee recalls single-serve pods sold at major retailers like Walmart due to ink contamination risk.
New Mexico Pinon Coffee has been recalled over concerns about ink contamination. The popular coffee brand has recalled some quantities of the product. The recall affects New Mexico Pinon Coffee’s 10-count single-serve pods. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued the alert, explaining a production issue that could lead to ink leaking into the beverage.

New Mexico Pinon Coffee Recall Timeline

The recall was issued on June 20. The FDA stated that the cause was a production fault during manufacturing. The seal on the lid did not receive a consistent clear coat. This defect allowed ink on the product’s label to run when exposed to high temperatures.

Ink contamination may occur when hot water passes through the single-serve pods, potentially transferring the ink into the beverage. The affected units are marked with a best-by date of May 2026.
