'''Butter tea''', also known as ''po cha'' ("Tibetan tea"), ''cha süma'' ( "churned tea"), Chinese language: ''sūyóu chá'' ([[wiktionary:酥|酥]][[wiktionary:油|油]][[wiktionary:茶|茶]]) or ''goor goor'' in local Ladakhi terms, is a drink of the Tibetans and Chinese minorities in southwestern China. It is also consumed in Bhutan. It is made from [[tea]] leaves, yak butter, and salt.<br />
<br />
==Usage==<br />
Drinking butter tea is a regular part of Tibetan life. Before work, a Tibetan will typically down several bowlfuls of this beverage, and it is always served to guests. Nomads are said to often drink up to 40 cups of it a day. Since butter is the main ingredient, butter tea is a very warming drink, providing lots of calories energy and is particularly suited to high altitudes. The butter also helps prevent chapped lips.<br />
<br />
as per to the Tibetan custom, butter tea is drunk in separate sips, and after each sip the host refills the bowl to the brim. Thus, the guest never drains his bowl; rather, it is constantly topped off. If the visitor does not wish to drink, the best thing to do is leave the tea untouched until the time comes to leave and then drain the bowl. In this way etiquette is observed and the host will not be offended.<ref name="chapman">Chapman, F. Spencer. (1940). ''Lhasa the Holy City'', pp. 52-53. Readers Union Ltd., London.</ref><br />
<br />
Butter tea is also used for eating ''[[tsampa]]'' by pouring onto it, or dipping the tsampa into it, and mixing well. <br />
<br />
The concentrate, produced by repeatedly boiling tea leaves, will keep for several days, and is commonly used in towns. The tea is then combined with salt and butter in a special tea churn ({{bo|t=མདོང་མོ་|w=mdong mo}}), and churned vigorously before serving hot. Now an electric [[blender]] is often used.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
[[Image:Butter tea churns, Sera, Tibet.JPG|thumb|Butter tea churns, [[Sera Monastery]], Tibet]]<br />
<br />
While evidence of tea has been found in Tibet from before the 10th century, it did not reach its nearly universal status until about the 13th century, the time of the Sakya hierarchy and the Phagmodu kings. By the start of the rule by the [[Dalai Lama]], tea had become a government monopoly. While it is now officially allowed to be sold by anyone, it still is mostly sold by government officials.<ref>Das, Sarat Chandra (1902). ''Lhasa and Central Tibet''. Reprint: (1988), Mehra Offset Press, Delhi.</ref><br />
<br />
==Preparation==<br />
<br />
The highest quality tea is made by boiling the tea leaves in water for half a day, achieving a dark brown color. It is then skimmed, and poured into a cylinder with fresh yak butter and salt which is then shaken. The result is a purplish liquid that is about the thickness of a stew<ref name="chapman" /> or thick oil. It is then poured into clay tea-pots, or jars, that resemble Japanese teapots.<ref>[[Ekai Kawaguchi|Kawaguchi, Ekai]] (1909): ''Three Years in Tibet'', pp. 325-326. Reprint: Book Faith India (1995), Delhi. ISBN 81-7303-036-7</ref><br />
<br />
Another method is to boil water, and add handfuls of the tea into the water, which is allowed to steep until it turns almost black. Salt is then added, along with a little soda if wanted. The tea is then strained through a horse-hair or reed colander into a wooden butter churn, and a large lump of butter is added. This is then churned until the tea reaches the proper consistency and transferred to copper pots that sit on a brazier to keep them warm. When a churn is not available, a wooden bowl and rapid stirring will suffice.<ref>''Tibetan Marches''. [[André Migot]]. Translated from the French by Peter Fleming, pp. 102-3. (1955). E. P.
