SwitchExplanation
Convert US fluid ounces of gin to grams using a density reference of 0.953 g/mL. On that basis, 1 US fluid ounce works out to 28.18 grams for this ingredient.
That is especially useful for cocktail specs, bottle-fill checks, and bar batching where gin starts as a measured pour but the target is weight. Gin is treated here as 40% ABV, so stronger or lower-proof bottles can shift the practical density slightly.

Gin density evidence
Gin is a distilled spirit defined by a juniper-forward botanical profile. Typically dry and aromatic, it provides structure, lift, and clarity in cocktails where botanical character is central to the drink’s identity.
Practical use: Gin is primarily used as a base spirit in cocktails where aromatic precision is essential. It shines in stirred classics that emphasize clarity and balance (e.g., the Martini and Negroni), performs strongly in citrus-driven sours where its structure supports acidity, and excels in long drinks where carbonation amplifies its botanical aromas (e.g., the Gin & Tonic).
Composition and sensory context: Juniper leads with piney and resinous notes, supported by herbal complexity and bright citrus peel. The profile is dry rather than sweet, with subtle spice and a clean, persistent aromatic finish that carries well in mixed drinks. This profile reflects a classic London Dry style; sweeter Old Tom or fuller, earthier styles can read slightly rounder in perceived sweetness and spice.
Gin uses 0.953 g/mL in this dataset, which is 4.7% lighter by volume than the 1 g/mL water reference. Evidence status: medium-confidence. Source basis: Approx density for ~40% ABV ethanol-water at room temp (used across base spirits).
Among the 15 reviewed records labeled Spirits, the nearest density to Gin is Añejo Rum at 0.953 g/mL: an absolute difference of 0 g/mL (0.0% relative to Gin). The observed range in this labeled group is Añejo Rum at 0.953 g/mL to Whiskey at 0.953 g/mL. This is a numerical comparison, not a claim that the liquids are interchangeable.
Brand formulation, alcohol or sugar concentration, carbonation, and serving temperature can change the weight of a measured volume. Use this value as a documented reference rather than a producer specification.
