dbo:abstract
  • El popo es una bebida espumosa y fría típica del sur del estado de Veracruz y de algunas zonas del estado de Oaxaca, como la cuenca del Papaloapan o el Istmo. Su ingrediente principal es el cacao, que se endulza con azúcar o piloncillo, y se mezcla con agua; también se agrega azquiote, llamado cocomeca en Oaxaca, y/o chupipi, ambos agentes espumantes. Algunas recetas frecuentemente lo aromatizan con canela y/o anís, y lo espesan con masa o arroz. Se trata de una bebida ceremonial, que se elabora para bodas, bautizos, cumpleaños, fiestas patronales...​​ Su consumo se da con la cosecha del cacao, entre los meses de agosto hasta diciembre.​ En Ojitlán se usa una variedad de cacao llamada tigre, por el veteado blanco de sus frutos.​ En los pueblos de la zona, como Tuxtepec, es común encontrar vendedoras callejeras ofreciendo un vaso de popo por $10-15 MXN.​ Su nombre proviene del náhuatl, popocti ([cosa] «que humea» o «que espuma»), según el antropólogo Florentino Cruz,​ en referencia a la espuma característica de esta bebida. Compárese con Popocatépetl, «montaña que humea». El popo está fuertemente ligado a las comunidades indígenas, particularmente los nahuas, mixe-popolucas, zoque-popolucas, mazatecos y chinantecos.​ Para estas comunidades, la misma preparación del popo es en sí un ritual,​ que se puede alargar hasta dos días.​ (es)

Some recipes frequently flavor it with cinnamon and/or anise, and they thicken it with maize dough or rice. It is a ceremonial drink, which is prepared for weddings, baptisms, birthdays, patron saint festivals… Its consumption occurs with the cocoa harvest, between the months of August to December. In Ojitlán, a type of cocoa called tiger is used for the white veins of its fruits. In the local towns, such as Tuxtepec, it is common to find street vendors offering a glass of popo for $10-15 MXN pesos. Its name comes from the Nahuatl, popocti ([thing] "that smokes" or "that foams"), according to anthropologist Florentíno Cruz, in reference to the foaming characteristic of this drink. It is compared with Popocatépetl, which is the "mountain that smokes". Popo is strongly linked to indigenous communities, particularly the Nahuas, Mixe-Popolucas, Zoque-Populucas, Mazatecs and Chinatecs. For these communities, the very preparation of the popo is in itself a ritual, which can last up to two days. (en)
