The manguara is a curious word that comes from the characteristic idiosyncrasy of Andalusia in Spain, specifically in the province of Huelva. The word began to be heard in the world-famous mines of Rio Tinto, the English workers who in the 19th century exploited them went after the day to the tasca and asked for "man water" which in English means burning water and whose pronunciation resembles something like "manguara". The locals with their characteristic joy began to adopt it in a funny way and since then in the area you can hear people asking for the manguara when they want a glass of brandy. There is another story very similar to this with the word alirón, in this case you have to move a little further north of Spain. .
