Place a steamer inserted into a saucepan and fill with water until just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring the water to a boil.

Puree the ube in a blender or food processor, or thoroughly mash by hand.

Combine 1 cup of the pureed ube, ¾ cup of milk, coconut milk, and sugar in a blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth.

Pour remaining ¾ cup whole milk into a saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin on top. Let stand for 5 minutes.

Heat the milk-gelatin mixture over medium-low heat for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring until gelatin is dissolved.

Pour in the ube mixture and increase the heat to medium. Heat until the steam starts to rise from the mixture for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Pour the mixture into individual serving glasses or molds.

Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for about 3 hours until set.

Serve and enjoy!
