Argentina might be best-known for its delicious meat and world-famous churrascos, but did you know this country also has a collection of famous drinks? Visitors to this South American country will undoubtedly be familiar with the delicious drinks that are offered here.
You should definitely check out these three on your next Argentinian vacation.
Malbec Wine
Malbec is one of the most trending wines on Earth, and the epicenter for its production is Argentina. Grown in the Mendoza region of the country, sandwiched between its fertile flat lands and the Andes Mountains, this rich red wine is bold and full of tannins.
Mate
Anyone who has ever traveled to Argentina or spent time with Argentinians has probably seen people from this country sipping a drink through a metal straw out of a curiously-shaped container. This is mate, a tea-like drink that is made from the dried leaves of a plant and helps with concentration and focus.
Fernet con Coca
Looking to fit in at an Argentinian party? Be sure to bring along Fernet, an Italian aromatic spirit, and a bottle of Coca-Cola. This strange mix is beloved by many Argentinians who swear by the flavors that are created when the two drinks are mixed.
