Pints to Liters

Pint

A pint (pt) is a commonly used US customary unit of volume for beverages and everyday liquids. One US pint equals 2 cups or 16 fluid ounces, making it a practical size for drinks, meal prep, and smaller food packaging. Pints are widely used in grocery stores, especially for items like ice cream, juice, and milk.

Because the pint is tied to the US measurement system, converting to metric units such as milliliters or liters can be less intuitive. A converter helps ensure quick and accurate results — especially when following international recipes or comparing product sizes from different regions.

Liter

A liter (L) is a common unit of volume in the metric system. It represents the amount of space that one cubic decimeter occupies, making it perfect for measuring liquids and everyday containers. You’ll see liters used for beverages, fuel, cleaning products, and anything that pours — from water bottles to milk cartons.

Because liters are part of the metric system, they convert cleanly with milliliters (1 L = 1000 mL) and cubic meters (1 m³ = 1000 L). When switching between metric and US or UK units — like gallons, cups, or fluid ounces — a conversion tool provides quick and accurate results, especially in cooking or travel.
