\"Dairy<\/p>\n

Should it be Blizzards of the Month or Blizzard of the Months? Or should we throw in some random apostrophes somewhere? The reason for these grammatical and punctuative predicaments is that Dairy Queen has unleashed both the Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Lovers and Reese\u2019s Chocolate Lovers to battle for the title of Blizzard of the Month for June. <\/p>\n

OK, so there\u2019s no battle, but with two choices this month, plus the previously announced Summer Blizzard Menu with five other options, it\u2019s enough for a Blizzard party!<\/p>\n

Apparently with two new offerings to create, the Blizzard wizards at DQ could only muster half the creativity this month, as each of these are about as straightforward as can be. The peanut butter version has Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cups mixed into a blend of vanilla soft serve and peanut butter topping, while the chocolate version substitutes fudge topping instead peanut butter.<\/p>\n

While DQ will collect no prizes this month for thinking outside of the box, that doesn\u2019t mean these Blizzards are not good just because they are close cousins to several previous Reese\u2019s-inspired concoctions. In fact, they are genuinely good, proving again that sometimes the tried-and-true simple approach works just fine.<\/p>\n

So, which one is better? That will depend largely \u2014 and not surprisingly \u2014 on whether you prefer peanut butter or chocolate.<\/p>\n

Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Lovers<\/h3>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

My go-to Blizzard has always been the straight-up Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cup, but with all the new varieties being offered recently I can\u2019t remember the last time I noshed on my old friend. (Note to self: Never use that phrasing again). So I got a little misty-eyed when I dug into the Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Lovers Blizzard.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

A Blizzard with just vanilla soft serve and peanut butter cups is perfectly good, but the addition of the peanut butter topping here really adds something. Again, no awards for creativity, but it\u2019s a simple and solid improvement over the standard PB cup Blizzard. After tasting this version, I\u2019ll be asking for a shot or two of that sweet peanut butter topping to be added to my standard PB cup Blizzard in the future.<\/p>\n

Reese\u2019s Chocolate Lovers<\/h3>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

If you really, really love chocolate, then you\u2019ll likely really, really love the Reese\u2019s Chocolate Lovers Blizzard. Perhaps my Blizzard barista got a little carried away with the fudge, but I found this one to be a bit too chocolatey to the point where the flavor of the peanut butter cups struggled to make much of an impact on my taste buds.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

Certainly this is still a good Blizzard, even though, assuming you like chocolate, peanut butter, and soft serve, it\u2019s hard to screw something like this up. But for me, it had just a little too much chocolate. Your results may vary.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

So if one version is for hardcore chocolate lovers and the other is for peanut butter aficionados, what would happen if you combined them into one spoonful? Well, I\u2019m glad you asked, or more correctly, that I asked myself.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

The combination of both \u2014 not unlike when Mr. H.B. Reese brought together chocolate and peanut butter in cup form \u2014 is quite tasty. Depending on which part of the spoonful hit my tongue first, I got a nice alternation of flavors throughout my Blizzard meal. Sure, it was a bit awkward to order two Blizzards while dining alone and having people look at me sitting in a booth while wondering if my DQ date had stood me up, but I really don\u2019t care.<\/p>\n

By the way, in case the Grammar Police are (or is?) watching, the correct answer to the above is Blizzards of the Month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
