Yak butter tea consumed in Tibet was the original inspiration for Bulletproof Coffee. Drinking yak butter tea at high altitude produced a burst of energy that led to later experimentation resulting in Bulletproof Coffee. The high-altitude environment in Tibet, around 18,000 feet with temperatures near ten degrees below zero, provided the context for the yak butter tea experience. Yak butter tea is prepared by putting butter into tea and agitating it with a handheld butter churn.
