AB  - From its beginning, the measurement of optical rotation (OR) is crucial for the 
      analysis of chiral molecules in many fields. However, the precision measurement 
      of a weak OR signal with conventional setup remains elusive. In this Letter, we 
      experimentally propose a precision method to determine the OR of glucose and 
      fructose based on weak measurements. By using the spin Hall effect of light 
      (SHEL) as a probe, a nonlinear weak measurements model is established that is 
      applicable beyond the Aharonov-Albert-Vaidman (AAV) limit. Due to the high 
      sensitivity of weak measurements amplification with respect to the OR, a 
      tremendous variation of the amplified beam displacement of the SHEL is observed, 
      while the concentration of glucose and fructose is slightly changed.
