One metric cup (250 ml) of vanilla extract weighs about 220 grams or 7.76 ounces, since the alcohol base makes it lighter than water. Most recipes call for it by the teaspoon, where 1 tsp weighs around 4.4 grams.

Recipes usually measure vanilla extract in teaspoons, but bottles list contents in millilitres or fluid ounces. This page converts between teaspoons, grams, millilitres, and cups so you can use whatever measure your recipe gives you.
