fluid measure

Cups or liters

Fluid measure is a system for quantifying liquids by volume rather than weight.

In the US system, fluid measures include teaspoons, tablespoons, fluid ounces, cups, pints, quarts, and gallons.

The metric system uses milliliters and liters.

The recipe calls for fluid measure, not dry measure.
