There are no possums in the US. True possums are marsupials native to Australia (with some varieties found also in New Guinea and the Indonesian island of Sulawesi). Possums are quite different to American opossums. However, whether possums or opossums, the females of the species do have a pouch for raising their young.

Yes, opossums drink water.
Possums are different to opossums, despite misconceptions about this. * True opossums are found only in North America, although there is a "water possum", also known as the yapok, which is found in central and South America. Possums are found in New Guinea, Australia (including Tasmania), Sulawesi (Indonesia) and a few other small islands in the Pacific region. Although not native to New Zealand, the brush-tailed possum was introduced into that country over a century ago and has subsequently become a pest.
