Why Chaï Latte & Salt

Janyl is from Ala-Too mountains in Kyrgyzstan on the border with China. Her mother used to prepare tea with milk and salt. It is a beverage for “extreme tea lovers” (чай для экстремалов), as one traveler put it. The podcast Chaï Latte & Salt brings you similarly idiosyncratic flavors of remote places in Central Asia.”
