The invention relates to the field of inhalation devices for liquids. In particular, the invention relates to a nebulizing nozzle to be used in such an inhalation device, as well as a method for fabrication of such a nozzle. A nozzle for an inhalation device for nebulizing a liquid into a respirable aerosol has a nozzle body () which has a front end (B) and which comprises at least two ejection channels ('), each channel (′) having an channel exit (A,A′), wherein the ejection channels (′) are arranged such as to eject liquid along respective ejection trajectories which intersect with one another at a collision point. The nozzle is characterized in that at least one recess () is provided at the front end (B) in which the channel exits (A,A′) are positioned. Disclosed is also a method for the fabrication of a nozzle body as defined above, use of such a nozzle in an inhalation device for nebulizing a liquid, and an inhalation device for nebulizing a liquid into a respirable aerosol, comprising such a nozzle.
