Manzana verde – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My host on Martinique offered me a glass of manzana with ice cubes from his bar, I liked it.
This is from the entry on en.wikipedia.org:
Manzana, also known as manzanita and manzana verde, is a liqueur generally made of wild apples. The name refers to the apples and not the alcoholic beverage which is usually clear in color. It has Spanish origins, more precisely of the Basque country. Its name manzana is apple in Spanish; verde is Spanish for “green”.
Manzana contains from 15 to 20% of alcohol. It is sweet and tastes like green apples, similar in taste to pucker.
