India is the world's largest producer and consumer of jaggery, a type of unrefined sugar that's used for making desserts, drinks, and offerings to gods across the country.

In the Indian state of Uttarakhand, small factories that use traditional methods produce up to 20,000 kilograms of jaggery a day.

We visited Iqbalpura, India, to see how jaggery is made in such big batches.
