jar / plastic bottle or container
Collins gives “container” for “bote” if it’s made of plastic (although I realize you said you didn’t want to use that).
Could you use “bottle?” It seems to be fairly common to refer to plastic spice containers this way. See the first link for a “3 oz. Plastic bottle of chili powder”, and the second link also talks about an 8 oz. “plastic bottle” (and the second one has no neck).
And a 1-oz. plastic bottle from McCormick here:

Hope it helps.

mug / plastic container
A tarro can be made of glass or ceramic. It is highly used for beer. A bote usually is made of plastic

Hi Kathy!
Aquí "tarro" puede ser de vidrio, porcelana, e incluso de lata.
"Bote" no se usa en LatAm, pero puede traducirse como "tin/can" si es de lata.
Saludos #:)

jar, can
(could be a plastic can)
"Bote" is used for just about any kind of can in Mexico, including the one you throw trash into and the one you sit on!

another thought: tub
It would depend on your picture, but tub is another possibility for a plastic container (different type than bottle, of course).
The first link below has a picture.
From the second link: GOOD WITH FISH HERB SEA SALT
Even the taste of particularly salty fish benefits from this flavour. Also good with chicken. Unbleached sea salt, Fennel, Peppers
Available in 200gm glass bottle or 300gm airtight plastic tub
No picture, unfortunately.
Hope it helps.
