8. Butter Tea – Tibet
Another unusual tea is the famous Tibetan butter tea or po cha. Like the Mongolian Suutei tsai, it has a salty taste as it needs generous amounts of yak’s butter. Nowadays, it’s more common to find cow’s butter due to its cheaper price.
Po cha is drunken all the time, but especially in the morning. The butter makes it full of energy which is perfect for high altitudes. Plus, it’s good to prevent chapped lips.
