I am including this as a curiosity. Even most Kazakhs don't drink this very much any more, little wonder. It has to be the most awful alcoholic beverage on the face of the Earth. Still, if you're a glutton for punishment, desperate for a totally new experience or looking for a new way to prove your machismo, then give it a try. It is also found in Mongolia.
Ingredients:
2 liters mare's milk
1/4 cup horse fat
Directions:
1. Pour milk into a goat-skin bag. Add horse fat and fermenting agent. Leave in at room temperature, stirring once a day, for six weeks.
2. Serve chilled. Better yet, don't serve it.
