yes, beets can cause the change in colr of urine.
if you dont have pain, burning sensation, fever, chilliness, vomiting etc, you need not worry.
see if the color changes later. but if you develop any of the other symptoms, call your doctor.

Beets are a classic cause of pinkish excretion. Bright yellow does not necessarily mean dehydration, dark orange is an indicator too. It is just how much the urine is diluted with water.

Your urine is orangish pink aye...I have a degree in urinology and that means two more months of cold weather.
