It is a species of sweet purple yam, a root vegetable native to the Philippines.

Because of its aesthetic appearance, the drink is now dominating cafes across the world. Talking about its taste, ube drinks are mildly sweet, creamy and nutty. They also have distinct notes of vanilla and coconut, making them perfect for the summer season. The best part? Ube drinks are also quite healthy.
