EN: to have a honeymoon
The OG 'travel goals' for newlyweds. It's that sweet period after the stress of wedding planning where you can finally 'collect the coconut milk' (the weirdly poetic literal translation). Basically, it's your first official vacation as a married couple, probably funded by ninongs and ninangs, before you have to deal with bills and in-laws.
From 'pulot' (to pick up/gather) and 'gata' (coconut milk), a metaphor for the sweetness of the newlywed phase.
This is an idiomatic expression. It is exclusively used to mean 'to go on a honeymoon'.
