If the Carrot Kanji is the classic North Indian fermented drink, Beetroot Kanji is its more visually spectacular cousin — and in some ways, even more interesting to taste. Earthybite Beetroot Kanji is made with fresh beetroot, mustard seeds, Himalayan pink salt, and water — naturally fermented the same way traditional kanji has always been made, but with beetroot as the star ingredient. The result is a deep, jewel-red drink with that distinctive kanji character — tangy, mustard-spiced, slightly earthy — made deeper and more complex by the natural sweetness and earthiness of the beetroot. That colour alone, when you hold the glass up to the light, is something worth stopping for.
Beetroot kanji has a gentler entry point than carrot kanji for first-timers. The beetroot's natural sweetness takes some of the sharp edges off the mustard-forward tanginess, making the overall flavour more rounded and slightly less intense — though still unmistakably kanji, still properly tangy, still with that characteristic mustard warmth that defines the drink. If you have tried the Carrot Kanji and loved it, this version offers a different dimension of the same tradition. If you are new to kanji entirely, beetroot kanji is arguably the more approachable place to begin. Either way, it is a drink that earns its place in your regular routine quickly.
The connection to Holi is worth mentioning because it is real and meaningful. Beetroot kanji — with its deep red colour and tangy, refreshing flavour — has historically been served during Holi celebrations in North India, both as a refreshing drink after playing with colours and as part of the festive food spread. Opening a bottle of beetroot kanji during Holi feels right in a way that is hard to explain but immediately obvious when you experience it. It is also a drink for winter mornings on an empty stomach — a small glass to settle and wake up the system before the day begins — and for any time you want something genuinely fermented and genuinely Indian that is unlike anything else in the fridge.
Four ingredients: Beetroot (19%), Mustard Seeds, Himalayan Pink Salt, Water. No preservatives, no artificial anything. Naturally fermented. Vegan. Clean. The back label describes it honestly as a "liquid concentrate for water-based flavoured drinks" — this is a concentrated kanji, which means you can also dilute it with a little chilled water if you prefer a lighter drink. Keep it refrigerated and enjoy within the 6-month shelf life. Made by Dhampure Speciality Sugars Limited under the Earthybite brand — honest, simple, traditional.
What Makes Earthybite Beetroot Kanji Special:
- Beautiful Deep Red Colour: That vivid, jewel-red beetroot hue makes this one of the most visually striking fermented drinks you will ever pour into a glass.
- Naturally Fermented — No Shortcuts: Fermented the traditional way with just four clean ingredients — no vinegar, no artificial preservatives, no added flavours.
- Beetroot Sweetness Rounds the Kanji Flavour: The natural sweetness of beetroot softens the mustard-forward tanginess slightly, making this more approachable for first-timers without losing the authentic kanji character.
- Four Clean Ingredients: Beetroot, Mustard Seeds, Himalayan Pink Salt, Water — everything you need, nothing you do not.
- Himalayan Pink Salt: A cleaner, more mineral-rich salt that seasons the kanji without any harshness.
- Vegan and Preservative-Free: Made as simply and honestly as traditional kanji has always been made in Indian homes.
- Connected to Holi and Winter Tradition: A drink with genuine cultural roots — the deep red colour and tangy festive flavour make it especially meaningful during Holi and winter mornings.
When to Drink It:
Best enjoyed chilled — a small glass in the morning on an empty stomach as a traditional digestive starter. During Holi as a culturally meaningful festive drink. As a refreshing mid-morning drink that is genuinely different from anything else. Can also be diluted with chilled water for a lighter version. Shake well before opening.
A note for first-timers: Beetroot kanji has a bold, tangy, mustard-forward flavour — the beetroot adds a natural sweetness that makes it more rounded than classic carrot kanji, but it is still a fermented drink with real presence. Start with a small glass and let the flavour settle on you.
