Steps:
- Rim the glass: On a small plate, mix together the sugar and salt. Rub a lemon wedge around the top edge of your glass to moisten it, then dip the glass into the sugar-salt mixture so that it sticks, tapping all the way around.
- For one (or two) drinks: Fill a small cocktail shaker with ice. Add the tequila, amaretto, lemon juice, and lime juice. Tightly close and shake vigorously for at least 30 seconds (it's longer than you think). Strain into the rimmed glass. Enjoy immediately.
- For a pitcher: In the bottom of a pitcher, stir together the tequila, amaretto, lemon juice, and lime juice (do not add ice to the pitcher). Serve immediately or place a piece of plastic wrap over the top of the pitcher and refrigerate for up to 4 hours. Shake just before serving.

Steps:
- Prepare the glasses: Remove a strip of zest from one of the limes using a vegetable peeler. Juice the limes; you'll need 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) juice. Spread 3 tablespoons salt on a small plate. Rub the lime peel and a little of the juice around the rims of 6 glasses and then dip the rims in the salt. Fill the glasses with ice.
- Make the margaritas: In a pitcher, stir together the tequila, Cointreau, chile slices, red pepper flakes and lime juice. Pour into the glasses.

Steps:
- First, make the chilli syrup. Put the sliced chilli and sugar in a saucepan with 50ml water. Bring to a simmer over a low- medium heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Turn off the heat and leave to cool completely.
- For the salt rim garnish, mix all the ingredients together and tip onto a shallow plate. Brush the rims of four tumblers with a little water, then dip the rims in the chilli-salt mixture. Set aside while you make the margarita.
- Tip all the cocktail ingredients into a large cocktail shaker or blender and shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker feels cold, or pulse two or three times to combine. You want to chill, aerate and dilute the drink, but not completely crush the ice.
- Fill a large jug and the prepared tumblers with ice cubes, then strain the cocktail into the jug and stir well before pouring into the tumblers.
