About Ginja liqueur

Ginja liqueur, also known as ginjinha, is a traditional Portuguese cherry liqueur made by infusing sour cherries (ginja berries) in alcohol along with sugar and occasionally additional spices like cinnamon. Originating in Portugal, particularly popular in regions like Lisbon and Óbidos, this specialty drink is often enjoyed as an aperitif or dessert beverage. Its rich, deep flavor comes from the natural juices and essences of the cherries, which give it a sweet-tart profile. While Ginja liqueur contains natural antioxidants from the cherries, its nutritional aspects should be considered in moderation. The sugar content and alcohol level contribute to a higher calorie intake, making it less suitable for those monitoring their sugar consumption. However, its use of real fruit provides a glimpse of fruit-derived nutrients. Ginja is best savored mindfully, highlighting the cultural heritage of Portuguese cuisine rather than as a health-oriented beverage.
