| Units of measurement
The milliliter (AE) or millilitre (BE), abbreviated mL or ml, is a metric unit of volume measurement. It is equal to the cubic centimeter (cm³ or colloqually cc) and to 0.001 L.
As many recipes have been crudely converted from one system to another, a similarly crude conversion back may yield the original recipe. Crude conversions are as follows:
| Milliliters | alternative | US customary measure |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | 1 t | |
| 15 | 1 T | |
| 18 | 1 British tablespoon | |
| 20 | 1 T and 1 t | |
| 4 t | ||
| 1 Australian (metric) tablespoon | ||
| 30 | 1 fluid ounce | |
| 60 | ¼ cup | |
| 80 | 1/3 cup | |
| 120 | 125 | ½ cup |
| 160 | 2/3 cup | |
| 240 | 250 | 1 cup |
| 300 | 1¼ cup | |
| 480 | 500 | 1 pint |
| 960 | 1000 | 1 quart |
