Futi Kadi or Phuti Kadi is a kokum kadi made with the combination of kokum and water. Since, no coconut milk is added to this kadi, it is called futi. You can call this as sol kadi without coconut milk. This drink is very good for digestion. Normally Goans have sol kadi with coconut milk or this futi kadi at the end of a meal just like how in South India people have curds. This kadi is also a very good summer drink as kokum is a body cooler. You can make it in the morning, refrigerate it and keep on sipping it throughout the day. Green chilies are added to the kadi to enhance the flavour, but most people discard it while drinking.

Serve the Futi Kadi with Steamed Rice and Kachumber Salad or simply drink it at the end of a hearty Goan meal.
