This July, Scarlet Café turns the spotlight on ube, the vividly purple, subtly sweet yam beloved across the Philippines, with a month-long drinks menu celebrating one of the country’s most iconic ingredients. Long cherished in Filipino kitchens for its striking colour and naturally earthy sweetness, ube remains a rarity on Kolkata’s café menus, making Scarlet’s dedicated line-up a refreshing first. From creamy, indulgent creations to lighter, more refreshing pours, the menu explores the versatility of this distinctive ingredient, inviting guests to discover a flavour that’s as unique as it is memorable.

In addition to its eye-catching color and distinct flavor, ube has significant health benefits because it is naturally high in fiber and antioxidants, making this menu as nutritious as it is tasty.

Scarlet Café invites customers to experience ube in all its creamy, vibrant glory with a flavor that’s difficult to find elsewhere in the city and a menu carefully designed to showcase it in every form. This is a celebration of a flavor that is worth seeking out and coming back for.
