tamarindo
Tropical fruit drink
Tamarindo is the Spanish word for tamarind—both the tropical tree and its tart, brown pulp used in cooking and drinks.
In Latin American contexts, tamarindo usually refers to a sweet-sour beverage made from tamarind pulp, water, and sugar: I'll have a tamarindo with my tacos.
The word appears on menus and in markets throughout the Americas, often alongside other agua fresca flavors like horchata and jamaica.
