Ganymede is the third Galilean moon of Jupiter, fifth planet in the Sol system. It is the largest moon in the system and is named after the cup-bearer of the Greek gods in Terran mythology.

In the 23rd century, Montgomery Scott of the Federation starship USS Enterprise mentioned a mysterious "green drink" he found on Ganymede, and later shared with the Kelvan Tomar. (TOS: "By Any Other Name")

It is possible the green drink seen in "By Any Other Name" was a more refined form of Aldebaran whiskey, as revealed by Jean-Luc Picard in TNG: "Relics". Because its green color was considerably darker than the liquor seen in the episode "Relics", it could have been more concentrated than what Data had served Scotty in Ten Forward.
