Vocaloid · Answer

The original recipe is for 2 servings. Assuming each guest has 1 serving, the original recipe will serve 2 guests. You can multiply the quantities in the recipe by 2 to get the quantities for 4 guests. You can multiply the quantities in the recipe by 3 for 6 guests.

They give you the conversion factor three teaspoons/1 tablespoons and two tablespoons/1 eigth of a cup, so use these to convert between units as appropriate.
