Suutei Tsai refers to a popular drink in Mongolia which is a salty tea with milk.
To make Suutei Tsai:
Put the tea into a Pan of water and let it boil a short moment. Now add about the same amount of milk to the water, and boil the mix again. Instead of stirring, the Mongolians will lift out some liquid with a Ladle and let it splash back from a certain hight. This brings enough movement into the liquid in the flat Pan on the yurt stove. In the end, season to taste with salt and strain into a teapot.
This tea is served in little bowls. It is Mongolia's standard beverage to every meal.
Nowadays, milk tea is already available in "instant powder" form which is very practical when traveling.
