Shubat

Shubat is a fermented camel's milk drink. It's a Turkic beverage that's popular throughout Central Asia, especially in Turkmenistan (chal) and Kazakhstan, where it's a staple summer drink. To make, pour fresh camel's milk into a leather wineskin bag or ceramic jar with a prepared starter. The spoiled milk is left to ferment for a few days before being gently mixed until it reaches a thick, homogeneous consistency.

Shubat is said to have a plethora of health advantages. It's good for the digestive system and pancreas, and it's especially good for persons who suffer from anemia. When used topically, it is supposed to moisturize the skin while also nourishing it with vitamins, proteins, and minerals.
