All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
Boil some water in a tea kettle or pot. Place 1/4 cup of honey into a glass measuring cup or small jar. Add 2 tablespoons of hot water to the cup or jar of honey and mix well with a spoon or small whisk until you have a syrup consistency. You can store this in the fridge for a couple of weeks if you don’t need it all.
In a small bowl, stir together the salt and sugar.
Pour it out onto a flat saucer.
Rub the rims of 2 old-fashioned glasses or martini glasses with the lime wedge.
Dip the wet rims in the salt and sugar mixture.
Using a shot glass, add the tequila, amaretto, lemon juice, orange juice, and simple syrup to a cocktail shaker. Add a few ice cubes.
Cover and shake to blend.
Place ice cubes in the old-fashioned glasses, if desired. Strain the margarita over the ice. Alternatively, serve the margaritas up (no ice) in the martini glasses. Garnish each drink with a lemon twist.
