Step-by-Step Instructions for Iced Ube Coconut Macchiato
  1. In a small glass, combine heavy cream, coconut syrup, and ube extract. Use a handheld milk frother to whip until thick and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Set aside.
  2. Fill a tall glass with ice and pour in milk of choice with a splash of coconut syrup. Stir gently until combined.
  3. Carefully pour brewed espresso over the back of a spoon held just above the milk mixture to create layers.
