Is this really popular?

 The question of the day on my trivia calendar is " What does the popular Tibetan drink known as 'po cha' consist of?"  Well, to be honest I didn't know.  In fact I have never heard of po cha so (even though I certainly don't pretend to know everything) I wonder how popular it really is.  Although I have never been to Tibet.  It may indeed be very popular there.  But, back to the question, it turns out that po cha is a drink made of black tea, butter, milk and salt.  Side note, the butter and milk generally come from yaks not cows.  Well, as it turns out, I've been drinking half of po cha all my life.  Black tea and milk (from cows, or sometimes goats) is my breakfast drink every day.  Is that just po or just cha?  I can almost imagine adding a little butter to the mix but salt?  I'll get back to you on that.
