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.
Milliliter
A milliliter (mL) is a small metric unit of volume used to measure liquids and very small quantities. One milliliter is equal to one cubic centimeter (1 mL = 1 cm³) and one-thousandth of a liter (1000 mL = 1 L). Because of its precision, the milliliter is commonly used in medicine, cooking, product packaging, and scientific experiments.
You’ll find milliliters marked on measuring cups, beverage labels, and syringes. When you need to convert milliliters to other units — such as teaspoons, tablespoons, or fluid ounces — an online converter makes it easy to avoid errors in recipes and dosage instructions.
