Beetroot and ginger concentrate is used to add their bold, earthy and spicy flavors to drinks, smoothies, or recipes in a small amount. It is not a proven treatment for illness, and the exact ingredients and strength vary by product.
Mix beetroot and ginger concentrate into water, sparkling water, or a smoothie. Because it is concentrated, start with a small amount and adjust the flavor; drinking it straight is optional, not necessary.
Yes, beetroot and ginger concentrate is commonly diluted before drinking. Try a teaspoon in a glass of water first, then adjust to taste; there is no universal ratio because concentrates differ in strength.
Most healthy adults can usually have a modest serving of beetroot and ginger concentrate daily. Its strong, spicy flavor may irritate a sensitive stomach, so start with a small amount rather than making a large serving your routine.
It can be taken before exercise, and beetroot nitrates may support exercise performance for some people. The nitrate content of a concentrate varies, so it may not have the same effect as a studied beetroot-juice dose.
Nitrates in beetroot may modestly lower blood pressure in some people, but the amount in beetroot and ginger concentrate is product-dependent. If you take blood-pressure medication or have low blood pressure, ask your clinician before using it regularly.
Yes, beetroot and ginger concentrate can be taken on an empty stomach, but ginger's pungency may cause heartburn or nausea in people with sensitive stomachs. If that happens, dilute it more or have it with food.
Yes, beetroot pigments can temporarily make urine or stool look pink or reddish in some people. This is usually harmless after eating beetroot; seek medical advice if the discoloration continues without a beetroot-related cause.
Keep opened beetroot and ginger concentrate tightly sealed in the refrigerator and follow the storage directions on its container. Homemade concentrate should also be refrigerated in a clean, covered container and used within a few days.
Blend washed, chopped beetroot and fresh ginger, then strain the mixture to make beetroot and ginger concentrate. For a stronger result, gently simmer the liquid to reduce it, cool it promptly, and refrigerate it in a clean, sealed container.

Beetroot and ginger concentrate brings together beetroot’s earthy sweetness and ginger’s warm, sharp flavour in a concentrated form. It is generally used in small amounts as a base or flavouring for drinks and recipes; the exact texture and intensity vary by product. You can dilute it with water, add it to a smoothie, or whisk a little into a salad dressing. Its vivid flavour works well chilled, and a small taste mixed with water first helps you judge how much to use.
Carbohydrate makes up most of its energy, while fat is low; a 20 g serving contains about 60 calories. For a lighter drink, dilute it generously with still or sparkling water, or pair a little with plain yoghurt in a savoury dressing.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
