Qiangmudu Tea

If you come to Tibet, be sure not to miss the Tibetan specialty food “Qiangmudu Tea.” It is a must-have breakfast item for Tibetan herders and farmers. The preparation method is simple: first, place a small amount of tsampa, dry cheese powder, and butter in a bowl, then pour in the tea. After drinking the tea, stir the tsampa with a spoon and eat it.

Qiangmudu Tea is similar to Tibetan butter tea and is generally consumed in the morning. After noon, they mainly drink plain tea.
