Here is the Swift 5 version of Kunal's answer:

//count is the integer that has to be shown on the marker
func createImage(_ count: Int) -> UIImage {

    let color = UIColor.red
    // select needed color
    let string = "\(UInt(count))"
    // the string to colorize
    let attrs: [NSAttributedString.Key: Any] = [.foregroundColor: color]
    let attrStr = NSAttributedString(string: string, attributes: attrs)
    // add Font according to your need
    let image = UIImage(named: "ic_marker_orange")!
    // The image on which text has to be added
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(image.size)
    image.draw(in: CGRect(x: CGFloat(0), y: CGFloat(0), width: CGFloat(image.size.width), height: CGFloat(image.size.height)))
    let rect = CGRect(x: CGFloat(20), y: CGFloat(5), width: CGFloat(image.size.width), height: CGFloat(image.size.height))

    attrStr.draw(in: rect)

    let markerImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()!
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
    return markerImage
}  

Hope this helps someone else.
