About the units
Millilitres. A millilitre is one thousandth of a litre and therefore exactly one cubic centimetre. The SI Brochure treats the litre as a historical name for the cubic decimetre, and the millilitre is a legal unit across the EU and the measure for medicine doses, drinks and cosmetics. US nutrition labelling rules set a teaspoon at 5 millilitres, a tablespoon at 15 and a cup at 240. The old abbreviation “cc” means the same thing but is deprecated. For medicines a spoon should never replace millilitres, because spoon sizes vary between countries.
Tablespoons. A tablespoon is 15 millilitres, the figure used both in metric recipes and in US nutrition labelling. Three teaspoons of 5 millilitres make one tablespoon. There is also an older US customary tablespoon of half a fluid ounce, 14.79 millilitres. In cooking the difference does not matter, but in dosing it can: a spoon should never stand in for a figure in millilitres, because spoon sizes differ from one country to the next.
