Quartet in a quart crossword clue

1 Across · WSJ Crossword, October 4, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
CUPS
CUPS (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Quartet in a quart” is CUPS. It appears as 1 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 4, 2026, a Sunday puzzle titled “Circle of Friends” by Zhouqin Burnikel, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 1, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with C and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Weekend puzzles follow the same conventions as the weekday grids, pitched a notch above midweek, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
