Pouring latte art is a true skill, but pouring latte art into a vibrant purple canvas takes the presentation to an entirely new level. Ube lattes offer a stunning contrast between the white microfoam and the deep purple base.

Preparing the Canvas

The secret to great latte art starts with a perfectly smooth base. You must whisk your ube powder with a small amount of hot water until it is completely dissolved and silky. Any clumps in the base will disrupt the flow of the milk and ruin your design.

Steaming and Pouring

Steam your milk to achieve a glossy, wet paint texture. When you begin your pour, mix the milk thoroughly with the purple base to establish a solid canvas. Then, bring the pitcher close to the surface to execute your rosetta or swan, letting the stark white foam contrast beautifully against the pastel purple background.
