If you\u2019re looking to put some Spring in your step, your mouth, or your Instagram stories, look no further than the Iced Ube Coconut Macchiato from Starbucks. While the new toasted coconut syrup and toasted coconut cold foam are permanent additions to the menu, this ube incarnation is only here for a limited time. Combining milk, espresso, and toasted coconut syrup, this drink is served over ice and topped with a layer of ube coconut cold foam and a toasted coconut topping. For those counting, that\u2019s triple the coconut, so let\u2019s hope this flavor profile is a pleasant one because they\u2019re going all in on it.<\/p>\n
This macchiato is visibly striking thanks to its thick top layer of purple cold foam. The foam gets its color from ube powder, and it\u2019s definitely a head-turner. I could sense the eyes of many intrigued kids staring at the cup as the barista set it down; apparently, my Starbucks turns into a fifth-grade cafeteria at 4 pm. <\/p>\n
Avoiding the chaos, I took my drink to go and noticed that the foam held up quite well despite the walk and didn\u2019t immediately dissipate into the liquid below. The fuchsia foam is sweet and airy, with a velvety mouthfeel and a nice blend of vanilla and coconut. Does it taste like ube? It\u2019s hard to say; ube is described as tasting sweet and nutty, with notes of coconut and vanilla, so perhaps this does actually taste like ube, but it\u2019s getting a boost from the vanilla and coconut syrups the foam contains. Either way, it\u2019s delightful. The little bits of coconut topping sprinkled over it have a pleasant chew, somewhere between coconut flakes and coconut candy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The first few sips are mostly just sweet, though never cloying, and then the espresso integrates itself, bringing some bitter notes to balance things out. Things get increasingly coconutty as you go further into the drink, and it feels like a true coconut flavor as opposed to artificial or sunscreen-adjacent. <\/p>\n
I was impressed that, even though this looks like it could be a gimmicky drink, it doesn\u2019t fall into the category of dessert masquerading as coffee. You could drink this and feel like you\u2019re having a normal, albeit purple, coffee drink and not just a cup of sugar. It\u2019s also worth noting that you will look normal (well, assuming you look normal to begin with) after drinking this and won\u2019t be left with a purple mouth.<\/p>\n
The last time I had an ube macchiato, it came from Dunkin\u2019 and was underwhelming in both appearance and flavor. Where they failed, Starbucks delivers in spades. At over $7 for a grande, I\u2019m not sure I can afford to treat myself to this as often as I\u2019d like, but it\u2019s such a playful and enjoyable drink that I can\u2019t be mad at it. If a perfect blend of vanilla, toasted coconut, and coffee sounds appealing to you, ube-tter get to Starbucks before this macchiato leaves the menu.<\/p>\n
