3 ounces of honey equals 59.18 ml. Honey has a density of 340g per cup. A lighter ingredient like flour (125g/cup) would fill more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
What is a Milliliter?
A milliliter (ml) is a metric unit of volume equal to 1/1000 of a liter. It is the standard volume measurement for cooking in most countries outside the US. One cup equals approximately 236.588 milliliters.
About 59.18 ml, based on honey having a density of 340g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 340 (grams per cup), then multiply by 236.588 to get milliliters. For 3 ounces: 3 × 28.3495 = 85.05g, then 85.05 ÷ 340 = 0.25 cups × 236.588 = 59.18 ml.
Weighing honey on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. It is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring vessels. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the measuring cup first so it slides out cleanly.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of honey changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 59.18 ml ÷ 236.588 = 0.250143 cups, then 0.250143 × 340g/cup = 85.05g, then 85.05g ÷ 28.3495 = 3 ounces. Or use the Milliliters to Ounces converter.
