The Refreshment Crossover
A new image proposes a team-up between two major brands from the chilled section: Magnum and Lipton. The concept, presented in a classic three-pack multipack box, imagines a Magnum flavoured with Lipton Iced Tea. It’s a straightforward proposition, pairing the familiar cracked chocolate shell with a flavour more associated with cans and bottles than freezer drawers. The visual is simple and effective. It keeps Magnum’s branding front and centre, but adopts Lipton’s signature yellow colour scheme.
Brand crossovers are nothing new, but they usually happen within the same category. Chocolate bars become ice creams. Biscuits become breakfast cereals. This one is different. It bridges the gap between a dairy-based frozen dessert and a brewed tea drink, two product types that rarely intersect in UK supermarkets. The original caption that accompanied the image kept things simple: “Lipton Iced Tea Magnums. A refreshing dream, would you try it?”
The Real Magnum Range
Magnum’s actual UK range is already extensive, covering classic confectionery, fruit, and nut profiles. The core of the lineup remains the Chocolate, Almond, and White Chocolate sticks, mainstays of the category for decades. But the brand has never been static. Recent years have seen the permanent addition of flavours like Salted Caramel, Mint, and Pistachio, which sit alongside more intense fruit versions such as Double Raspberry.
There is even a Signature Peach variant. The brand also caters to different dietary needs and portion sizes, with a Vegan Classic stick and Mini versions of its core flavours available in multipacks. The range is broad. It has options. What it does not currently have is anything based on a beverage. The focus remains squarely on established ice cream flavour profiles.
A Flavour Profile Gap
The Lipton Iced Tea concept occupies a space that is currently empty in the UK freezer aisle. Tea-flavoured ice cream is a standard offering in many parts of the world, particularly in East Asia, but it has never become a mainstream flavour in Britain. You won’t find it next to the mint choc chip. This mockup suggests a way it could arrive, piggybacking on the strength of two hugely recognisable brands.
It’s a departure from Magnum’s established rhythm of fruit, caramel, or pure chocolate. It moves away from decadence and towards refreshment. For now, it’s just a concept, but it highlights a flavour category that remains almost entirely unexplored by the big ice cream makers in the UK.
What the real range looks like
The genuine Magnum UK range includes Classic, Almond, White Chocolate, Mint, Salted Caramel, Pistachio, Double Raspberry, and Signature Peach variants, plus vegan and mini options. A Lipton Iced Tea flavour would be a significant departure, moving the brand into a beverage-inspired profile for the first time.
