Teaspoon (US) to Metric cup (250 mL)

Teaspoon (US) (tsp)

The US teaspoon is a customary cooking unit equal to approximately 4.92892 milliliters. Its origin comes from traditional household spoons used for measuring spices and small quantities of liquid. The teaspoon has become a standard unit in American recipes, baking, and mixology, allowing for repeatable and accurate measurements. While small, it plays a critical role in precise culinary measurements and is often paired with tablespoons, cups, and other US volume units in recipes.

Metric Cup (250 mL)

The metric cup equals 250 milliliters and is part of the metric cooking system used worldwide, especially in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. Unlike the US cup, it is decimal-based, making recipe scaling and international culinary communication straightforward. Metric cups are widely used in nutrition labeling, recipe books, and professional kitchens.
