Teaspoons to Ounces: How Many Teaspoons in an Ounce?
1 fl oz = 6 tsp.
A fluid ounce holds 6 teaspoons, because it is 2 tablespoons and each tablespoon is 3 teaspoons. One teaspoon is therefore ⅙ of an ounce, and 2 teaspoons is ⅓ ounce.

When you need this conversion
Teaspoon-to-ounce conversions come up with extracts, syrups and medicine cups. A 2-ounce bottle of vanilla extract holds 12 teaspoons, and a 1-ounce bottle holds 6. Measuring cups rarely mark anything below ¼ cup (2 fl oz), so for less than that, teaspoons and tablespoons are more accurate.
Measuring small liquid amounts
For anything under 2 fluid ounces, spoons are more accurate than a measuring cup. Fill the teaspoon to the rim over a small bowl, not over the mixing bowl, so a spill does not ruin the batch. For medicine, use the dosing cup or syringe that came with it: kitchen teaspoons vary in size, while a proper measuring teaspoon is 4.93 ml.
