Pomo
/Sounds like "POH" (as in "port") + "moh" (as in "more")/
Meaning
In Mexico, a bottle of liquor, usually something affordable you grab before going out. The pomo is the centerpiece of the "previo" (pre-game): friends at someone's apartment, cheap vodka or rum, whatever mixer is in the fridge, and music that is probably too loud for the neighbors.
Examples
“We grabbed a bottle of vodka for the pre-game.”
“Bring a bottle and we'll throw the after-party right here.”
