water jugs

Containers for drinking

Water jugs are large containers for holding and pouring water—typically with a handle and sometimes a spout or lid.

They range from plastic pitchers kept in refrigerators to ceramic vessels and industrial containers.

The term also appears as crude slang for large breasts, playing on the shape and the slang sense of jugs.
