Red Bull. The Summer Edition. Apricot Strawberry Review.


I've not done many reviews for this brand (search them on my blog) but today I'm trying the apricot strawberry flavour. Note I have done a summer version before that was a dragon fruit flavour, this year it's different.

At first this was delicious and smelled lovely but it was quick to change in taste, it was gross quick. To describe the initial taste it was fruity and sweet, a lot of fruits and candy, the after taste was something so odd, I can't describe it but it was off. I'm sad it didn't turn out but still was fine to try for review. I wouldn't get it again and I rate it 1.5/5.

Magnum. Strawberries and Cream Ice Cream Bar Review.

 




This is my first Magnum bar, I haven't had any thus far because most of them are very chocolate heavy and I'm picky about chocolate but I saw this strawberries and cream bar and I was excited to try it for review.

The ice cream is divine, very flavourful and lovely texture. The white chocolate shell though I wasn't too keen on but I knew this going into it, as I'm not a fan much of white chocolate. If this bar had a milk chocolate shell that would've been the best! I would eat this again though but I don't know if I'd buy myself one again and I rate it 3.5/5, I wanted to say a 4 so bad but the white chocolate makes up for so much of this bar but just know I was leaning heavy to a 4.

The Bingsu. Strawberry Bingsu Review.

 


I've been to this restaurant once before (search it on my blog) and today I'm doing a review for the strawberry bingsu.

For those that haven't heard of bingsu, it's a Korean shaved "ice" dessert made of a frozen block of milk or cream that they grate finely and they become what they call "snowflakes". The texture is like very fine snow, when spooned it's like ice cream. Today I ordered the strawberry one, this is made with "snowflakes" and condensed milk and topped with strawberries, almond slices, strawberry sauce and ice cream.

It's delicious, each bite was so good! I have to say, if I hadn't prior but bingsu is very cold, often I would be shocked with chill and had brain freeze a few times, much colder than regular desserts. I would get it again for sure and I rate it 5/5.

Note: the previous trip they were selling regular and large servings, last time we ordered the large and it was a lot of food even for two people, we barely finished it and left feeling so full and sick haha. This time they changed their menu to cup and regular servings, phasing out the large serving. The large serving was perfect for two people and we were left full but content, not sick this time.

Harvey's. Blue Raspberry Frozen Red Bull Review.

 



I have tried the peach frozen red bull (search it on my blog) and today I'm reviewing the blue raspberry frozen red bull.

I was hoping to like this flavour despite blue raspberry flavours being normally hit or miss but it was very tart and not as good as the peach one. I wouldn't get it again and I rate it 2.5/5.

Dairy Queen. Poolside Punch Twisty Misty Drink Review.

 




I have done quite a few reviews from this restaurant (search them on my blog) and today I'm doing an experiment with the summer limited edition Poolside Punch twisty misty.

I went 3 times out for this drink, the photos above are in order of which one I got when and mind you each one is from a different location, so I visited 3 locations for this review.

Drink one was my first time trying this drink, it was DELICIOUS. This tastes like candy and I loved it.  I rate it 5/5.

Drink two was different looking and tasting, still like candy but it was not as good, overall not bad but I was disappointed compared. I rate it 3/5.

Drink three was also delicious, not quite as good as the first time but overall still really good and had that iconic candy flavour. I rate it 4/5.

I've been told it's only a summer drink but I want it forever haha! So I found each location does it a bit different, maybe I'll run to grab the first one again before the summer is over.

Leclerc. Celebration. Strawberry and Creme Truffle Butter Cookie Review.

 





I just did a review of this brand and type of cookie (search it on my blog) and today I'm trying the celebration cookie in the limited edition strawberry and cream flavour.

The cookie again is rich and overall tastes good with the chocolate and cookie but the strawberry cream is just okay. It's not as good as the raspberry in my opinion but not too bad. Again I can only eat one or two of these with how rich they are so I wouldn't buy them again but I rate them 3/5.

Leclerc. Celebration. Raspberry Truffle Butter Cookie Review.

 





Oddly enough I haven't had a Celebration cookie since I was a child. I wanted to try this one for review, they have a few flavours and this one is raspberry truffle. I've done quite a few reviews on this brand (search them on my blog).

These are rich, pretty tasty and the raspberry is lovely. The cookie is indeed buttery and the milk chocolate is nice. I could eat one or two but a whole box is too much and too rich for me but overall a good cookie and I rate them 3.5/5. I have another one to review next, stay tuned..
