    1 cup = 8 ounces or 240ml. Here's a handy conversion calculator http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/nutrition_serving_calculator.asp

    We use both in Canada...we can't seem to decide if we want to move to the metric system. We dirve in km but weigh ourselves in lbs. To answer your question 1 cup = 250ml.
