check a bartenders book that will be given as partial shots and jiggers. the 2 sided cup bartenders use

5 ml = 1 teaspoon
15 ml = 1 tablespoon
35ml = 1.25 fluid ounces
I hope this helps
(Most of us just eyeball it)

I agree that most bartenders use jiggers or simply estimate the amounts based on experience.
I tend to read every recipe as “parts” instead of the actual volume. So your recipe would be 7 parts vodka, 3 parts triple sec, 1 part Rose’s Lime, 1 part fresh lime juice, and 4 parts cranberry juice with a dash of bitters.
Once you break it down into parts, you can measure everything with a teaspoon, shot glass, or whatever else is handy.
