}Explanation
US cups convert to grams by multiplying with the verified 235.2 g/cup density derived from the US cup (236.588 mL) definition and the liquid’s grams-per-milliliter ratio.
Use the calculator to translate recipe cups into grams while keeping the same density that powers the milliliter and fluid ounce families.
Lillet is a French aromatized aperitif wine based on Bordeaux wines with citrus notes and gentle quinine bitterness, known for its refined, fruit-forward profile. Practical use: Lillet is used as an aromatized wine modifier to add citrus freshness, fruit-driven sweetness, and gentle quinine bitterness. It supports aperitif-style and spirit-forward structures, softens sharper builds, and performs well in low-ABV compositions where balance and elegance are preferred over aggressive bitterness or dryness. Composition and sensory context: Lillet presents a rounded, fruit-forward aromatized wine profile with citrus brightness, honeyed sweetness, and subtle floral-herbal aromatics supported by gentle quinine bitterness. Acidity provides lift and clarity without sharpness, while bitterness remains restrained and elegant rather than tonic-like. Compared to more quinine-forward aromatized wines, Lillet is softer and sweeter; compared to dry vermouth, it is less austere and more fruit-led.
Lillet uses 0.994 g/mL in this dataset. That makes it 0.6% lighter by volume than water at the 1 g/mL reference. On the same basis, one US cup is about 235.2 g and one US fluid ounce is about 29.4 g.
Alcohol and residual sugar vary by style, so the reference is best treated as a representative wine value rather than a producer specification. These figures describe a reference conversion, not a guarantee for every brand, recipe, serving temperature, or production batch.
Evidence status for Lillet: medium-confidence. Dataset note: Wine/Vermouth density approximation near room temperature using a unified wine rule.

Methodology
Lillet density evidence
Lillet uses 0.994 g/mL in this dataset. Confidence: medium. Source basis: Wine/Vermouth density approximation near room temperature using a unified wine rule.
Evidence status: reference-recorded. The source note is recorded; this does not certify every preparation or measurement condition.
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.
