About Fluid Ounce (fl oz)

A US customary unit of liquid volume equal to 1/128 of a US gallon (about 29.57 mL). Fluid ounces are the standard unit on US beverage containers, shampoo bottles, cooking recipes, and cocktail recipes — a standard US soda can is 12 fl oz, a large Starbucks drink is 20 fl oz, and most cocktails call for 1.5 fl oz of spirits. Easy to confuse with the Imperial fluid ounce (~28.41 mL) used in the UK, though the difference is small enough that it rarely matters for everyday use.

About Liter (L)

A metric unit of volume equal to exactly 0.001 cubic meters (one cubic decimeter). Though technically not an SI unit, liters are accepted for use with SI and are the global standard for beverages, fuel consumption, car engine displacement, blood volume in medicine, and chemistry solutions. A standard wine bottle is 0.75 L, a soda can is 0.33 L, and a mid-size car's fuel tank holds 50–70 L. One liter of pure water at 4°C weighs almost exactly one kilogram — a design feature of the metric system.
