    ๐Ÿค” What is Ube?

    Ube, also known as purple yam, is a popular ingredient in Filipino cuisine and is commonly used in various desserts and drinks. It is a starchy root vegetable that has a vibrant purple color and a sweet, nutty flavor that is similar to sweet potato and pistachio. Ube's vibrant purple color makes it a visually stunning ingredient that has now gained popularity outside of the Philippines.

    ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿฝโ€๐Ÿณ How to Make an Iced Ube Latte

    Hand stirring milk and ube extract together with a glass straw.
    Coconut milk, ice, and ube extract slowly mix together in a glass.
    Spoon pouring frothy coffee over iced ube milk.
    1. Whip instant coffee, cane sugar, and cold water until frothy.
    2. Add ube extract, ice cubes, coconut milk, and oat milk to a latte glass.

      I recently tried the Iced Ube Latte and it was absolutely delicious! The vibrant purple color of the ube latte was so visually appealing and the taste was just as amazing. The creamy texture of the latte blended perfectly with the subtle sweetness of the ube flavor. I loved that this drink was not too sweet, but just enough to satisfy my craving for something indulgent.
