Figure out something that you do have a known measurement for. 1 cup is 8 oz. 2 cups = 16 oz = 1 pint
You might have an empty bottle or jar that's 2 cups. Fill that pint container and then pour it into a pair glasses or mugs...when they're even, you have 1 cup.

A table service/eating spoon is not really a teaspoon measure either. Sorry, some are more than 1 and some are less than 1 tsp.

Try what the others said for now. By the next time you want to bake something, go to a kitchen store and by a good set of measuring cups and spoons.

No, you do no longer decide to fluffy, yet do no longer p.c.. it like brown sugar the two. i come across the wonderful thank you to do it rather is to spoon the cocoa into the measuring cup, and pat it down a splash once you're approximately finished.

use a mug. or, if you have any 1 litre bottles in the recycling, use one of those. 1 cup is a quarter of a litre.

If you're in America, and don't have litres, a coke bottle is 600mls. a cup is 250mls. just under half a coke bottle should do it.

use a drink cup, either your coffee cup or beverage cup will get you close.
They are available at the dollar store for $1.00.
