/Sounds like "pee" (as in "pea") + "noh" (as in "note") + "LEE" (as in "lead") + "yoh" (as in "yoke")/
Nicaragua's national drink, made from toasted ground corn mixed with cacao, cinnamon, and sugar, then blended with water or milk. So central to Nicaraguan identity that "pinolero" (pinolillo drinker) became the colloquial word for a Nicaraguan. No grandmother lets a guest leave without a glass.
“Dame un vaso de pinolillo bien frío, hace mucho calor.”
“Give me a cold glass of pinolillo, it is really hot out.”
“Mi abuela hace el mejor pinolillo del barrio.”
“My grandma makes the best pinolillo in the whole neighborhood.”
