The Trader Joe's Ube Ice Cream has been unveiled by the brand as a limited-edition frozen dessert that will offer consumers a new way to enjoy the flavor. The ice cream is made with real ube puree and gets its rich color profile from naturally derived ingredients like beet juice and grape extract instead of artificial dyes. The dessert is perfect to enjoy on its own or to be topped with an array of different finishing touches that will work well with the flavor profile.
The Trader Joe's Ube Ice Cream is reported by the brand to have a nutty, creamy and sweet flavor profile that is something of a cross between traditional vanilla and pistachio.
