Description

To make tea, water is boiled in a large kettle before tea leaves are added. Then the tea is put in the butter churn with butter, milk, and salt. Villagers sometime just use butter and salt, along with milk powder. After churning the tea, it is put in the teapot and is kept hot on the stove until it is consumed.
