Can These Tribal People Beat Squid Game Dalgona Challenge?
About this video
A challenge episode from Tribal People Try: coffee, the tribe, and a fair fight. Watch who reaches for the water first.
What is coffee?
Coffee in its western forms: black filter coffee, espresso, cappuccino, Starbucks frappuccinos, cold brew. Pakistan is a tea country, and most of the tribe had never tasted coffee before the camera arrived.
What to watch for
Black coffee is bitter in a way nothing in village food prepares you for, and the faces show it. Milky, sugary coffees fare far better; a Starbucks caramel drink is essentially a cold dessert and is treated as one.
The comparison they always make
Doodh patti — strong tea boiled in milk with sugar — is drunk several times a day. Every coffee is compared to it, and coffee usually loses on the first cup.
