What is a teaspoon, really? It’s not just a tiny measure. A teaspoon actually holds 3/4 of a tablespoon, and it’s the equivalent of five milliliters.
So one teaspoon actually contains around 5 ml. Here are some more common teaspoons and their measurements: 1/3 teaspoon = 1 ml, 1/2 teaspoon = 2 ml, 1 teaspoon = 5 ml, 2 teaspoons = 10 ml.

Comparison of 1/4 teaspoon and teaspoons
There is a lot of confusion about teaspoons and how to use them. Some people believe that 1 teaspoon = 3 teaspoons, while others believe that 1 teaspoon = 4 teaspoons. Which is true? The answer depends on what you are measuring.
If you are measuring sugar, then 1 teaspoon is equivalent to 3 teaspoons. However, if you are measuring flour, then 1 teaspoon is equivalent to 4 teaspoons.
So, the answer to the question of which size tablespoon to use really depends on the material being measured.
If you are measuring sugar, then a tablespoon is equivalent to 1 teaspoon. If you are measuring flour, then a tablespoon is equivalent to 3 teaspoons.
