Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a jar, combine heavy cream, coconut syrup, and ube extract. Using a handheld frother, whisk for about 30 seconds until the mixture thickens to a creamy consistency.
  2. Fill a tall glass with ice, packing it tightly. Pour in your choice of milk and an additional splash of coconut syrup, stirring gently to dissolve the syrup completely.
  3. Slowly pour freshly brewed espresso over the milk mixture to maintain a striking layered effect.
  4. Carefully spoon the rich ube cold foam over the espresso layer. Optional: sprinkle toasted coconut chips on top.
