I heard about the beauty of Tibet and the sweetness of buttered tea earlier. When I come to Lhasa, I must taste the special Tibetan food. Influenced by natural conditions, the variety of Tibetan food is not rich, but it also has its own local characteristics. The hot sauce in Tibetan areas is a must, and the next day, Baba can also alleviate the high rebellion. Let's take a look at what food bars and drinks are available in Tibet.

Sweet tea is a Tibetan drink with a high degree of tourists' affection. Compared with butter tea, its taste is more acceptable to tourists. Boiled from black tea with sugar and milk, it is sweet and delicious, with pure taste. Compared with ordinary milk tea, it is more mellow and less sweet, so it is suitable for tasting slowly while basking in the sun. Recommended shops:
