Iced Ube Latte

A delicious ube-fied latte!
Servings 1

Ingredients

For the ube paste

  • ½ cup ube halaya or jam
  • ¼ cup 60 mL coconut milk
  • ¼ cup 60 mL condensed milk
  • ½ teaspoon ube extract optional

For each serving of latte

  • 2 Tablespoons ube paste
  • Ice cubes
  • ¼ cup 60 mL milk of choice
  • ¼ cup 60 mL strong coffee or 2 shots (60 mL) espresso
  • Condensed milk to sweeten as desired

Instructions

Make the paste

  • In a saucepan, combine the ingredients until well-mixed and just steaming hot. If you feel it’s too thick, thin out with more coconut milk a tablespoon at a time until you get your desired consistency. Transfer to a jar with a lid but allow to cool before sealing in. Keep in the fridge until ready to use, but try to finish it within a week. If the paste clumps up once chilled, give it a little mix to loosen before using.

Make the latte

  • In your serving glass, add the ube paste to the bottom. Add in ice cubes, then pour in the milk. Gently pour in the coffee if you want to show off the layers. Serve with a spoon. Make sure to stir the latte until the color turns pinkish and the drink is well-mixed. Enjoy!
