6 ounces of honey equals 118.36 ml. That's 170.10g, and Honey has a density of 340g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and milliliters measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.
Honey at Different Amounts
How honey scales across common ounces measurements. Your amount (6 ounces) is highlighted.
Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.
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 118.36 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 6 ounces: 6 × 28.3495 = 170.10g, then 170.10 ÷ 340 = 0.50 cups × 236.588 = 118.36 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: 118.36 ml ÷ 236.588 = 0.500286 cups, then 0.500286 × 340g/cup = 170.10g, then 170.10g ÷ 28.3495 = 6 ounces. Or use the Milliliters to Ounces converter.
