FAQs

How do I get the layered Vanilla Ube Matcha look?

Use chilled milk and ice, then slowly pour the ube mixture and freshly whisked matcha into the glass. Pouring the matcha gently over the top helps create distinct layers.

How can I make my Vanilla Ube Matcha creamier?

Use creamy milk such as whole milk or oat milk. You can also adjust the amount of ube to create a richer texture and flavour.

What makes Vanilla Ube Matcha different from a regular matcha latte?

A regular matcha latte focuses mainly on matcha and milk, while Vanilla Ube Matcha adds ube and vanilla for a sweeter, creamier, and more colourful flavour combination.

What is ube in a matcha drink?

Ube is a purple yam known for its naturally sweet and nutty flavour. In matcha drinks, it adds a creamy texture and a vibrant purple colour.

How much ube should I add to my matcha?

Start with a small amount and adjust according to your taste. Using too much ube can make the drink very sweet and mask the matcha flavour.
