About these units
Pint (UK) (pt (UK))
The UK pint, defined as 568.261 mL, is famous for its role in British pub culture. Beer and cider are traditionally served in pints, and the unit remains legally protected in pubs to this day. The pint is also used for milk and other daily-use liquids in the UK, maintaining its relevance even after metrication. Its larger size compared to the US pint (473 mL) is often a point of international curiosity. More than a measurement, the pint represents a cultural icon deeply woven into British identity and tradition.
Fluid Ounce (UK) (fl oz (UK))
A UK fluid ounce equals 28.4130625 mL, slightly larger than the US fluid ounce. It forms part of the imperial system used in cooking, beverage preparation, and older pharmaceutical formulations. Imperial fluid ounces were historically derived from the UK gallon (1/160 of a gallon), distinguishing them from US units derived from a different gallon. Though metric units dominate in the UK today, fluid ounces still appear in bartending, antique recipes, and product packaging that caters to traditional preferences or legacy export markets.
