The term splash is typically used as a bar tender measurement for adding a very small amount of liquid to a drink, approximately 1/8 ounce.

Cappuccinos at StarbucksOrder a short (8 ounces) cappuccino to get the size that's closest to the traditional (6 ounces). Short and tall cappuccinos comes with 1 shot of espresso, while grande and venti cappuccino come with a double shot.
One part is an inexact measurement. It can mean, for example, 1 ounce, 1 tablespoon or 1 cup. The key is keeping all “parts” equal. So if your drink calls for one part alcohol and three parts juice and you're making a drink for yourself, you'd want a mixture of 1 ounce of liquor and 3 ounces of the juice.
Dash or SplashA dash is bigger than a splash, but both are small amounts. You use them to flavor a cocktail for taste, so it's a bit of a judgment call. A splash generally involves less viscous liquids such as mixers, whereas dashes are used with stronger flavourings, such as tabasco.
A splash, by comparison is about 1/2 teaspoon. However, neither glug nor splash should be called for in recipes that require exact measurements.
A shot of coffee with a dash of milk, it will contain just 13 or 18 calories depending on whether the milk added is skim or full cream. The risk with this form of coffee is that many will add sugar, which will add 15 calories per teaspoon.
Measured out in drops, using a precise, milliliter-dropper like the ones used to dispense medicine, a dash is about 10 single drops. Measured out in teaspoons, a dash would be 1/5 teaspoon, or as I discovered in my kitchen, between 1/8th teaspoon and 1/4 teaspoon.
