59.97 ounces of honey equals 1,183.02 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?
Milliliters measure volume and are used worldwide for cooking and baking. For water at room temperature, 1 ml weighs approximately 1 gram, but this relationship does not hold for other ingredients.
About 1,183.02 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 59.97 ounces: 59.97 × 28.3495 = 1,700.12g, then 1,700.12 ÷ 340 = 5.00 cups × 236.588 = 1,183.02 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: 1,183.02 ml ÷ 236.588 = 5.00036 cups, then 5.00036 × 340g/cup = 1,700.12g, then 1,700.12g ÷ 28.3495 = 59.97 ounces. Or use the Milliliters to Ounces converter.
