The Ritual

How to make the perfect ube latte.

Hot or iced, dairy or plant — here's everything you need to pour a beautiful cup of purple in about a minute.

The method

Scoop, whisk, pour.

The paste-first method keeps it silky and clump-free.

Scoop
1

Scoop

Add 1–2 teaspoons (about 5g) of purple ube powder to your cup.

Whisk
2

Whisk

Add 2–3 tablespoons of hot water and whisk into a smooth, glossy paste.

Pour
3

Pour

Top with steamed or cold milk. Sweeten to taste and stir.

Hot or iced

Two ways to pour.

Hot latte: whisk the paste, then add 200ml of hot (not boiling) milk. Froth for a cafe-style finish.

Iced latte: whisk the paste with a little hot water, fill a glass with ice, add cold milk, then pour the purple over the top for a layered look. Stir before sipping.

Pro tips

Small things, big difference.

No clumps

Always make a paste with a little hot water first, before adding milk.

Sweeten to taste

Ube is only gently sweet. Add honey, maple, or your syrup of choice.

Best milks

Oat and coconut are creamy favorites; whole milk is classic.

Keep it vivid

Avoid boiling water — hot, not boiling, keeps the purple bright.

Milk pairings

Find your match.

Troubleshooting

If your cup isn't quite right.

It's a little clumpy — what happened?

Milk was likely added before the paste formed. Whisk the powder with a splash of hot water first, then add milk.

It tastes too earthy.

Try a touch more sweetener and a creamier milk like oat or coconut. A pinch of vanilla rounds it out beautifully.

The color looks muted.

Use hot — not boiling — water, and don't over-dilute. More powder means a deeper purple.

How much should I use?

Start with 1 teaspoon and adjust up to 2 for a richer cup and color.
