description Douzhi Overview

Douzhi is a traditional Beijing fermented drink made from mung beans, generally from the liquid produced when mung-bean starch is processed. It has a gray-green appearance and a sour, pungent aroma and flavor that distinguish it from fresh bean beverages. In Beijing cuisine it is commonly served hot, often with fried dough rings called jiaoquan and savory pickled vegetables. The drink is a regional specialty associated with Beijing breakfast and traditional Chinese food culture.
