Full API documentation

Explanation

Convert US cups of whiskey (40% abv) to grams using a density reference of 0.948 g/mL. With the US cup fixed at 236.588 mL, that gives 224.29 grams per cup for this ingredient.

That is especially useful for cocktail specs, batching sheets, and inventory work where whiskey (40% abv) starts from weight but service still uses poured measures. Whiskey (40% ABV) is treated here as 40% ABV, so stronger or lower-proof bottles can shift the practical density slightly.

Method & Density Basis

Density basis: 0.948 g/mL (anchored to US cup 236.588 mL and US fl oz 29.57 mL).
Applied factor: 1 Cup = 224.29 Grams.
Consistency rule: mirror pages invert the same per-liquid constants so forward and reverse directions remain aligned.

Methodology

Whiskey (40% ABV) density evidence

Whiskey (40% ABV) uses 0.948 g/mL in this dataset, which is 5.2% lighter by volume than the 1 g/mL water reference. Evidence status: medium-confidence. Source basis: Whiskey density near 40% ABV.

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.
