# The cup of wine must be filled with a [[Revi'it]] of wine and one must drink a full [[Revi'it]] or at least majority of a [[Reviyit]]. <ref> S"A 472:9. See Rav Schachter at [http://www.ou.org/torah/article/oukosher_pre-pesach_webcast_5770 OU Pre-Pesach Webcast 5770] between minutes 93 and 94 says that people have the misconception that one only has to drink a sip of wine, however, in reality, one needs to have a [[Reviyit]] or at least a majority of a [[Reviyit]]. </ref>

# If the cup holds more than a [[Revi'it]], one can fulfill one's obligation by only drinking one [[Revi'it]]. However, because some hold that one should drink the entire cup, if one plans on only drinking a [[Revi'it]] one should use a cup that only holds a [[Revi'it]]. Additionally, if a cup holds a number of Revi'iyot, many people can drink from the same cup as long as there is a [[Revi'it]] for each person. <ref>

* Beit Yosef 472:9 quotes the Kol Bo and Orchot Chaim, who say that if a cup holds many Reviyot, one still has to drink only a Revi’it. The Ramban, however, argues that one must drink majority of the cup even if it is larger than a Revi’it. Although S”A 472:9 rules like the Kol Bo, if one doesn’t plan on drinking a lot, Mishna Brurah 472:33 advises having a cup that holds only a Revi’it in order to satisfy the opinion of the Ramban. </ref>
