A Ginjinha

A Ginjinha is a famous Portuguese bar and producer of Ginjinha (sour cherry liqueur) located in Lisbon, Portugal. Established in 1840 by a Galician monk named Espinheira, it is renowned for its iconic cherry liqueur made by infusing sour cherries (ginja berries) in aguardente (Portuguese spirit).

The liqueur is traditionally served in a small glass, with customers asked if they prefer it “com ou sem elas” (with or without the cherry). This sweet-tart drink has become a symbol of Lisbon's cultural experience, drawing locals and tourists alike to enjoy a taste of this authentic Portuguese tradition.
