## Crushed Ice in a 7 oz Scoop
A standard 7 oz cocktail scoop holds approximately 200-250 grams of loosely packed crushed ice[1][2].
When filled, a 7 oz scoop contains around 1 cup of crushed ice. The exact weight can vary depending on how tightly the ice is packed in the scoop[3].
As a general guideline:
- 1 cup of loosely packed crushed ice weighs around 113-142 grams (4-5 oz)[1]
- 1 cup of more densely packed crushed ice weighs around 170 grams (6 oz)[2]
So in summary, a full 7 oz cocktail scoop will hold 200-250 grams of crushed ice, with the exact amount depending on how much the ice is compressed when scooping.
