That Jason guy from Axian Food Adventure explained the origin of bak kut teh before.
Teh refers to the surname of the shop owner of that shop nearby below the bridge in Klang. That shop was the one which popularized Bak Kut Teh. Teh has nothing to do with tea.
So, it all started from there.
He didn't mention anything about drug addicts also.

Bkt is chinese word....if it's a surname then 肉古茶 will be 肉古叶....doesn't make sense dude....might be coincidence that his surname is Teh but end up wrote it as 茶 instead of 叶
dunno you understand chinese or not but in china and even japan....most drinks with herbs we call it 茶 aka cha aka teh
In Bak Kut TeN* or 肉骨茶, the TeN or 茶 here refers to Chinese medicine in liquid form or 藥茶.dunno you understand chinese or not but in china and even japan....most drinks with herbs we call it 茶 aka cha aka teh
