How to Make Ube Cold Foam Coffee

Now that you’re all set to dive into the world of Ube Cold Foam Coffee, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty of making this delightful drink. I promise, it’s as easy as pie—well, maybe easier! With just a few simple steps, you’ll be sipping on this creamy concoction in no time. So, grab your favorite mug, and let’s get started!

Step 1 – Prep Ingredients

First things first, brew a cup of your favorite coffee. I usually go for a medium roast, but feel free to choose whatever tickles your fancy. Let it cool slightly while you gather your ingredients. You’ll need:

1 cup brewed coffee
1/2 cup milk (or your go-to non-dairy alternative)
1/4 cup ube halaya (ube jam)
1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Having everything ready to go makes the process smoother than a freshly whipped cream topping!

Step 2 – Begin Cooking

In a separate bowl, mix the milk and ube halaya until they’re well combined. This is where the magic begins! The vibrant purple color of the ube will start to shine through, and you’ll be tempted to taste it right away. If you have a sweet tooth, go ahead and add that tablespoon of sugar to the ube mixture. Stir until it’s all dissolved, and you’ll have a sweet, creamy base that’s just begging to be layered over your coffee.

Step 3 – Combine Ingredients

Now, let’s whip up some cream! In another bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. This is where you can really get your arm workout in—unless you have an electric mixer, in which case, you can just sit back and let it do the work for you. Once you’ve got those lovely peaks, it’s time to layer!

Grab your glass and pour the brewed coffee in first. Then, gently layer the ube milk mixture over the coffee. You want to create a beautiful gradient effect, so pour slowly and let it settle. Finally, top it off with that luscious whipped cream to create the cold foam effect. It’s like a little cloud of happiness sitting on top of your drink!

Step 4 – Finish and Serve

And there you have it! Your Ube Cold Foam Coffee is ready to be enjoyed. Serve it immediately, and don’t forget to take a moment to appreciate the beautiful colors before diving in. Trust me, this drink is not just a feast for the taste buds but also for the eyes!

Ingredients You’ll Need

Before we dive into the delightful process of making Ube Cold Foam Coffee, let’s gather our ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:

1 cup brewed coffee: This is the star of the show! Choose your favorite brew—whether it’s a bold dark roast or a smooth medium blend, it sets the foundation for your drink.
1/2 cup milk (or non-dairy alternative): This adds creaminess to your coffee. You can use whole milk for a rich flavor, or opt for almond, oat, or soy milk if you prefer a non-dairy option.
1/4 cup ube halaya (ube jam): This is where the magic happens! Ube halaya brings that beautiful purple color and a unique sweetness that pairs perfectly with coffee. You can find it in Asian grocery stores or make your own at home if you’re feeling adventurous!
1 tablespoon sugar (optional): Depending on your sweet tooth, you can add a touch of sugar to enhance the sweetness of the ube. Feel free to adjust this to your liking!
1/2 cup heavy cream: This is what creates that luscious cold foam on top. It adds a rich, velvety texture that makes every sip feel indulgent.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract: A splash of vanilla elevates the flavor profile, adding warmth and depth to your drink.

Now, if you’re looking for a vegan version, simply swap the heavy cream for coconut cream and use your favorite non-dairy milk. It’s just as delicious and creamy!
