Mama Juana (or Mamajuana) is a spiced alcoholic beverage made by infusing a mixture of rum, red wine, and honey with tree bark and herbs. The taste is similar to port wine and the color is a deep red. It originates in the Dominican Republic.^[1]

The specific herbs that make up Mamajuana were originally prepared as a herbal tea by the native Taíno; post-Columbus, alcohol was added to the recipe.
