I don't know how to measure one part because I'm not sure if that means one ounce or more or what.

If you are making one drink (for one person), one part should be about 25-30ml.
If you're making for 4 persons, 1 part then would be 4x 25-30ml.

If you are making a drink having two ingredients in it, such as tomato juice and the booze, each ingredient is measured out in relation to how much of the other is needed. If it says three parts tomato juice to five parts booze, you could use three ounces of TJ to five ounces of booze. Or, you could use 300 gallons of TJ to 500 gallons of booze. Or 51 tons of TJ to 85 tons of booze. It's just a ratio to avoid having to use specific measures because in bartending, speed is of the essence and it's much easier to use the same measuring cup for both ingredients.

A part is just a way of saying you should use the same measurements for all the ingredients. For example if a recipe call for one part of rum and one part of water then you can use one ounce, ten ounces , one quart of rum as long as you use the same amount of water. It just a proportrion thing. it just allows you to use any amount you wish as long as you are consistent with the base measure.
one part of rum two parts of water could be a quart of rum and two quarts of water as well as a ounce of rum and two ounces of water.

"Part" = whatever unit you define. Look at the whole recipe and decide how much of the final drink you need and work backwards.
A drink I was making tonight required 1 oz. of lime juice. For one drink 1 oz. = 1 part. If I was making four drinks, 4 oz. = 1 part.
Hope that helps.

It depends on how much of this recipe you want to make - if you're using "one part" rum and "two parts" orange juice, for example, you would substitute the term "jigger", "cup" or "pint" or whatever for "part". So you create the measurement, and the recipe specifies the mix.

It's whatever measurement you're using.
For example, one part water/two parts milk could mean one tablespoon of water and two tablespoons of milk; or it could mean one quart of water and two quarts of milk.

It is not an exact amount; it is a proportion. Pick an amount: "one part" equals that amount; "two parts" equals double that amount; "three parts" equals triple that amount; and so on.
