You  hear of kaali gajjar ki kanji….kaanji wadas ….this is nothing but sour water with a little spice n carrots.takes about 4days to get the right flavour..the kaali gajjar is a variety of carrots which is available in the north…since I love this drink….n cant get these carrots here I use beetroot to give that special color…..these pics have been taken on the second day,so the color is still light…as days pass by the water gets vibrant…a lovely purple color.u can drink a glass of this water after meals …helps digestion!
