I was expecting the color of the creamy base to have a green hue, but it looks like vanilla. However, the pistachio flavor was spot on. Well, it better since the nut is an ingredient. But what takes this to another level is the honey, honey. The gooey add-in makes every spoonful with it taste divine, and now I want milk chocolate covered pistachios dipped in honey. Unfortunately, there wasn&#8217;t a whole lot of it in my tub.<\/p>\n<p>As for the Almond Brown Butter, I should start by saying that it has almond-flavored ice cream, not almond milk frozen dessert. Also, and this is going to sound odd, the almond base, at times, somewhat reminds me of the pistachio one. Yes, they&#8217;re both nuts, and I may be nuts for thinking they&#8217;re a little similar, but there were times when I had to double-check whether I was eating this one or the pistachio one. A green-colored base would&#8217;ve been nice here, Magnum.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Magnum-Double-Almond-Brown-Butter-Tub.jpeg?resize=600%2C602&#038;ssl=1\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto\" alt=\"Magnum Double Almond Brown Butter Tub\" title=\"Magnum Double Almond Brown Butter Tub.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"602\"\/><\/p>\n<p>You might be wondering what brown butter sauce is. With the use of the word &#8220;butter,&#8221; I initially thought it would be like what we put on popcorn, baked potatoes, waffles, and fingers with rings that won&#8217;t come off. But if we&#8217;re going by what&#8217;s in the ingredients list, it seems to be a combination of brown sugar and almond butter, although its flavor leans more towards the brown sugar. Like the honey in the pistachio tub, it elevates everything. Thankfully, there was a decent amount of it in my container.<\/p>\n<h3>Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>The more I eat these Magnum tubs, the more I&#8217;ve realized that the thick Belgian chocolate layer I face every time I break the foil lid&#8217;s seal is a pain in my snacking butt. It was great at first because it was new, unique, and the chocolate is one of the better tasting ones included in an ice cream, but now it&#8217;s become work to spoon stab my way to get to the ice cream. Besides, there&#8217;s more than enough chocolate throughout the tub, and there&#8217;s a thick layer at the bottom.<\/p>\n<p>I might be in the minority about this, but if you feel the same way, let me know in the comments.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>I&#8217;ve had every single one of these Magnum tubs that have come out so far, and I have yet to be disappointed with any of them, and that continues to be the case with these. Between these two new varieties, I&#8217;m giving a slight edge to Pistachio Honey as my favorite between them, but either one will satisfy your sweet cravings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCLOSURE:<\/strong> I received a free samples of the products.
