I've put the old traditional bottle names like pint, fifth, and half gallon in quotes because they are no longer accurate measurements. We may still call them that, but things have changed!
- standard shot = 1.5 oz
- 50 ml "mini" bottle = 1.7 oz
- 200 ml "half pint" bottle = 6.8 oz
- 375 ml "pint" bottle = 12.7 oz
- 750 ml "fifth" or standard wine bottle = 25.4 oz
- 1 liter "quart" bottle = 33.8 oz
- 1.5 liter wine "magnum" bottle = 50.8 oz
- 1.75 liter "half gallon" or "handle" bottle = 59.2 oz
- 3 liter wine bottle or box = 101.6 oz
- 5 liter wine box = 169 oz
- 1 cup = 8 oz
And for bonus points, ever wonder why they called it a "fifth" bottle? It was a fifth of a gallon.
