I see it as an opportunity for multiple list too.
Abc for drinks.
How about an ABC list for all the drinks that use a particular glass?
ABC list for methods - those prepared in a cocktail shaker, in the glass etc.
Each time you add the drink to one of the abc list you also link the ingredients and the method.
If you do opt for making multiple ABC list... don't copy them from the book. Only add them once you made or learnt how to make them. So your list will grow as you are learning. When you go down the list during piggy bank time see what you can remember. Having actually made them will help make it easier to remember.
