How to Convert Millilitres to Teaspoons
1 teaspoon = 5 ml. Divide millilitres by 5 to get teaspoons. So 30 ml ÷ 5 = 6 tsp. The teaspoon is one of the more consistent kitchen units globally - 5 ml across US, UK, Canada and Australia.
Useful when reading metric cooking instructions (often given in ml for liquids) and translating to spoon measurements for kitchens equipped only with measuring spoons. 10 ml = 2 tsp = 2/3 tbsp. 25 ml = 5 tsp = 1.67 tbsp.

Frequently Asked Questions
How precise is teaspoon measurement?
Measuring teaspoons (the standardised set kind) are accurate to within 5%. The variation between different brands of measuring spoons is small. The bigger error is from using non-measuring spoons (regular tea or table spoons), which can vary 30-50% from the standard 5 ml.
Can I use ml-marked syringes?
Yes, if you have one (often used for medicine dosing). 5 ml syringe = 1 tsp. More precise than measuring spoons for very small quantities. Useful for liquid medicines or extracts where 1-2 ml accuracy matters.
