Our Verdict
The best pick for anyone who wants real ube flavor without artificial colors. It blends easily into drinks and batters and has a clean ingredient list. Just remember that it adds no color, so pair it with halaya or ube powder when you want that bright purple look.
What We Liked
- Made with natural flavors and no added color, so you get ube's vanilla-and-coconut aroma without any artificial dye
- Water-soluble, so it mixes evenly into milk drinks, shakes, and cocktails without leaving an oily film
- Sugar free, vegan, gluten free, non-GMO, kosher, and made in the USA
- Sold in sizes from 4 oz up to a full gallon, so it works for home bakers and small bakeries alike
Drawbacks
- The liquid is clear to pale yellow, so it adds flavor only. You'll need ube halaya, ube powder, or food coloring to get a purple color
- The flavor is gentler than the classic dyed Filipino extracts like Butterfly, so plan on using a bit more per recipe
