How to convert ounces of water to cups
Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 6 oz = 170 g. One US cup of water weighs 237 g, so 170 ÷ 237 = 0.72 cups.
Measure liquids in a clear jug at eye level. Thick dairy like yogurt or sour cream should be levelled in a dry cup.

Frequently asked questions
How many cups is 6 ounces of water?
6 ounces of water is about ¾ cup (0.72 cups), based on 237 g per level US cup.

Slightly. UK, Australian and New Zealand recipes use a 250 ml metric cup, which is about 6% bigger than a US cup (236.6 ml). In metric cups, 6 ounces of water is 0.68 cups.
