\"\"<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not sure how familiar the general public is with the purple yam called ube. Sure, Trader Joe\u2019s has rolled out several ube-flavored products over the past few years, but for the most part I feel it\u2019s still a little known flavor. <\/p>\n

However, on this rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, it\u2019s a common option with pastries and desserts. Even our local 7-Eleven locations had an ube-flavored Slurpee. I guess you could say it\u2019s ubequitous here. I apologize. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re unfamiliar with it, it\u2019s sweet and a bit coconut-like. And it has found its way into Jack in the Box\u2019s latest dessert, the Witch Please Shake. It\u2019s an Oreo shake mixed with ube flavors and topped with more Oreo pieces and whipped topping. The ube gives it a pleasant lavender color, but it\u2019s not dark enough to bring witches to my mind. It replaces the Basic Witch Shake<\/a> that showed up on Jack\u2019s menu board the past two fall seasons. That was a pumpkin spice shake with Oreo pieces.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The sweet coconutty taste is boldly there with every sip, but it\u2019s the only flavor I taste. While I can see and feel the Oreo pieces floating in the ice cream, they only offer texture as I don\u2019t taste their slightly bitter chocolate, even when I come across a decent-sized cookie chunk. This lack of cookie was also the case with the Basic Witch Shake. Although a little chocolate would\u2019ve been nice, not noticing the cookie pieces is not a completely bad thing because it allows the ube to stand out, and that flavor is so delightful.<\/p>\n

Jack in the Box\u2019s Witch Please Shake is a delicious follow-up to the Basic Witch Shake. For those who have never tried ube, it\u2019ll be a tasty introduction to the purple yam. For those who are familiar, I recommend sipping on this seasonal shake while you can because it\u2019s witch-ed good. Ubetcha.<\/p>\n
