How to measure 2 teaspoons
- With standard cups & spoons: 2 tsp
- By volume: 9.9 ml, or 0.33 fluid ounces — handy if you have a measuring jug.
- By weight (most accurate): see the gram table below for common ingredients.
Spoon measurements scale on a simple ladder: 1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons, and 1 teaspoon = 2 half-teaspoons = 4 quarter-teaspoons. So double 1 teaspoon works out to 2 tsp — every part of it comes straight from a standard measuring spoon set.

| Granulated sugar | 8 g |
| Brown sugar (packed) | 9 g |
| Powdered sugar | 5 g |
