Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 tsp ube extract or 2 tablespoons ube halaya
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 shot espresso or ½ cup strong coffee
  • 1-2 tsp sugar
  • ice

Instructions
 

  • In a glass or bowl, mix milk with ube extract and sugar. Stir until fully combined.
  • If using ube halaya, dissolve it first with a little warm milk, then mix into the rest.
  • Brew espresso or strong coffee and let it cool slightly.
  • Fill a glass with ice.
  • Pour the ube milk mixture over the ice.
  • Slowly pour espresso on top.
  • Stir before drinking and adjust sweetness if needed.

Notes

  • Use ube halaya for a stronger, more natural flavor.
  • Coconut milk works really well with ube.
  • Add condensed milk for a richer version.
  • Adjust espresso strength depending on how strong you like your coffee.
  • Best served fresh, but ube milk can be prepped ahead and stored in the fridge.
