Baskin-Robbins’ Taste of the Month for November 2024 is Brie My Visitor. It’s a cheeseboard-inspired taste that options brie and burrata ice lotions, almond slivers, pistachio items, and apricot swirls. I used to be a bit saddened it wasn’t a charcuterie board-inspired taste, however there’s all the time future Flavors of the Month.
Pardon my lack of cheese information, however I’d by no means heard of burrata earlier than having this ice cream. It sounds extra like a Taco Bell mad meals scientist abomination, nevertheless it’s a semisoft Italian cheese made out of mozzarella and cream. Fortunately, I do know and have had brie earlier than.
The cheese-flavored ice lotions give this a cheesecake-like vibe. There’s some savoriness, however fortunately, it doesn’t go too far that it will get bizarre, like Van Leeuwen’s pizza taste. The sugar and cream are doing their job of serving to steadiness the savory with sweetness. I assumed the flavors can be somewhat odd, however they had been surprisingly tasty. In addition they paired properly with the apricot swirls, which added a pleasing fruity tartness. My favourite spoonfuls had been these with simply the bases and the swirl.
Disrupting my enjoyment of the candy, tacky bases had been the almond items, which offered a barely crunchy texture but additionally a bit an excessive amount of nuttiness that will get in the way in which of the ice lotions. Possibly they need to’ve been chopped a bit extra as a substitute of slivers? However I had a a lot better expertise with the smaller pistachio items, which offered sufficient of their taste that they let the headliners shine but additionally contributed a few of their nuttiness.
The thought of consuming brie and burrata-flavored ice lotions could appear bizarre, however I loved it and would’ve prefer it extra if it weren’t for these almonds.
