/Sounds like "HEE" (as in "he") + "kah" (as in "car") + "rah" (as in "rapper")/
A traditional drinking vessel made from the dried gourd of the jícaro tree, used since pre-Hispanic times across Mesoamerica to drink water, chocolate, chicha, or atole. From the Nahuatl word "xicalli," the jícara is both an everyday utensil and a cultural artifact that survived centuries of history, often hand-painted with regional designs.
“Grandma always served the atole in a jícara, just like she always had.”
“Someone gave me a beautifully hand-painted jícara as a souvenir.”
