About these units
Dram (dr)
The fluid dram is a small historical unit equal to 1/8 of a US fluid ounce or 3.6967 mL (US), with slightly different imperial values. It originated in apothecaries and early pharmaceutical texts, where drams measured potent liquid medicines, tinctures, and extracts. In daily life, drams appeared in old cocktail recipes, medicinal syrups, and household remedies. However, the inconsistency between US and UK drams, along with the rise of the metric system, pushed it out of modern use. Today, the dram survives mostly in whiskey culture—where a "dram" informally means a small pour, not a precise measurement—and in historical studies of medicine.
Teaspoon (UK) (tsp (UK))
The UK teaspoon is defined as 5 milliliters, a value adopted in modern culinary and medical standards. Historically, however, its size varied considerably, often ranging from 4 to 6 mL depending on household spoons, region, or era. The modern 5 mL standardization brought consistency to recipes, pharmaceutical dosing instructions, and food labeling. Because teaspoons were once everyday household items rather than calibrated instruments, the move toward fixed metric equivalents significantly improved recipe reliability and medical accuracy. Despite the shift to SI units, the teaspoon endures as a culturally intuitive volume measure used in cooking and oral medication dosing, tying contemporary practice to long-standing domestic traditions.
