I like these sort of "small scale data problems". There is a lot of design space when you in this area when you don't have to be "web scale".
My approach for this particular problem is to check some TeX files into Git. I can render the cocktail recipes in two forms: one for my guests and one for myself that includes precise proportions.
Another approach for small scale data is "JSON files checked into git". (substitute JSON with whatever other text format you may like). This gives you a nice way to replicate data and to track changes to data.
