7‑Eleven announced on the 12th that it will roll out five ube-based items — from a highball to desserts and chocolate (pictured).
Ube is a purple yam grown in the Philippines and other parts of Southeast Asia. Its vivid, deep purple hue has made it a social-media favorite. It looks similar to taro, a type of colocasia, but ube has a richer color and a vanilla-like aroma.
7‑Eleven first introduced two desserts — the ube cookie crumble cupcake and the ube mini cream roll — and then added an Ube Kadaif chocolate. The chain will release an Ube Highball on the 13th and an Ube Cream Donut filled with ube cream on the 20th. Reporter Jeong Dae-han
