La jícara es un recipiente de arcilla o bien elaborado a partir del fruto del jícaro. En su definición más antigua aparece como "vasija pequeña de loza" empleada para tomar chocolate. El DRAE da como segunda definición "vasija pequeña de madera", fabricada artesanalmente con la corteza del fruto de la güira, y utilizada como la española de loza. Su uso es muy común en el estado de Tabasco, la península de Yucatán y otros estados del sureste de México y Centroamérica. Se considera americanismo azteca, del náhuatl xicalli, pocillo o vasija hecha con la corteza del fruto de la calabaza o de la güira, que pudo evolucionar como jícara. Se atesta su uso por primera vez en la lengua castellana en el año 1560 en Crónica de la Nueva España.
