A nanojunction breaks translational invariance and necessarily cuts off this divergence. However, the estimate of the ensuing viscosity is far from trivial. Here, we propose an approach based on a Kramers-Kr\\\"onig dispersion relation, which connects the zero-frequency viscosity, $\\eta(0)$, to the high-frequency shear modulus, $\\mu_{\\infty}$, of the electron liquid via $\\eta(0) =\\mu_{\\infty} \\tau$, with $\\tau$ the junction-specific momentum relaxation time.
