Butter coffee is certainly popular.... again. Although there are folks who will claim to have popularized the mixing of butter into coffee, the fact is that this is a very, very old tradition - dating back over 1000 years to 9th Century Ethiopia.
You can check out this site for a guide to recreating the traditional coffee ceremony. Though not a part of that ceremony, ghee (clarified butter) is commonly mixed with the ground beans before brewing, to create a warm, rich and restorative drink not unlike the Tibetan Butter Tea (which is though to have developed around the 10th century, half way around the world.)
