Between buying an expired domain for 301 redirect to your new domain
Or
Buying an expired domain and use as an authority blog?

Which would be considered a good idea in terms of getting good and quick ranking on Google?

Depends on what was this domain about, was it in your niche. Why redirect a domain to your page if it will not help you rank desired keywords.

You need to look at historical data if you’re going to use an expired domain, and I’m not talking about time or backlinks here. You need to take contextual source into consideration.

I’d rather 301 it to a new clean domain without any historical data.

How long does 301 take effect on a new domain?
