Explanation

Convert US cups of water to grams using a density reference of 1 g/mL. With the US cup fixed at 236.588 mL, that gives 236.588 grams per cup for this ingredient.

That is useful for mixer prep, dilution planning, and packaged-drink workflows where water volume and weight need to stay comparable. Water can still vary a little with sugar level or carbonation, so the converter keeps one reference value for consistency.

Method & Density Basis

  • Density basis: 1 g/mL (anchored to US cup 236.588 mL and US fl oz 29.5735295625 mL).
  • Applied factor: 1 Cup = 236.588 Grams.
  • Consistency rule: mirror pages invert the same per-liquid constants so forward and reverse directions remain aligned.
  • Source: Beverage density pool (Typical density of pure water at room temperature.)
