A Ginjinha

Ginjinha (pronounced sheen-SHEEN-yah) is a traditional Portuguese liqueur made from the ginja berry, which is a bit like a sour cherry. We didn’t love it, but it’s worth trying if you’re interested. And this spot is a cultural experience, a tiny hole-in-the-wall that’s probably the oldest ginjinha bar in Lisbon. You’ll be offered the choice of fruit or no fruit; that is, whether you want ginja berries in your drink. We recommend going sans fruit; even the more adventurous of us weren’t enamored with the berries, which are incredibly sour. Our rating is more for the experience than for the product.
