“This Guava Chilli Margarita is a refreshing take on the classic cocktail, featuring the tropical sweetness of guava juice and a kick of chilli heat,” says chef and cookbook author Seema Pankhania. It’s easy to scale up for a gathering, and simple to adapt for a non-alcoholic version – just leave out the tequila. Time and servings
