OZ to ML Converter

How to Convert Fluid Ounces to Milliliters

To convert US fluid ounces to milliliters, multiply by 29.5735. One US fluid ounce equals exactly 29.5735 mL. Note: a fluid ounce (volume) is different from an ounce (weight). Also, US fluid ounces differ from UK (Imperial) fluid ounces — 1 UK fl oz = 28.4131 mL. This converter uses US fluid ounces, which are standard in American recipes, nutrition labels, and drink sizes. The milliliter (1/1000 of a liter) is used worldwide for liquid measurements.

The OZ to ML Formula

The formula is: mL = fluid ounces × 29.5735. For quick mental math, multiply by 30 (error < 1.5%). For cups: 1 US cup = 8 fl oz = 236.588 mL (NOT 250 mL — that's a metric cup used in Australia). For tablespoons: 1 tbsp = 0.5 fl oz = 14.787 mL. For teaspoons: 1 tsp = 1/6 fl oz = 4.929 mL ≈ 5 mL. These relationships make it easy to convert between kitchen measurements.
