EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Don’t marinate the shrimp more than 3 hours; a longer time in the tomato juice will toughen the shrimp.

Serve shrimp in a divided glass bowl or cylinder with cocktail sauce. Serve condiments such as celery sticks, lime wedges, pickles and olives in separate low-ball glasses. Place the bowl and glasses on a large tray.

Place shrimp in an oversized martini glass (about 12 to 14 inches in diameter). Pour cocktail sauce mixture over shrimp, and garnish like a Bloody Mary with a skewer of colossal olives, a small lime wedges and a celery stick.

This was great! So easy! I made it for aValentine's Day dinner party and it was a hit. Be sure to rinse the shimp well or it will be too salty.

Made this for several parties and it''s always a huge hit! Leave it to marinate in the giant martini serving glass for best flavor.
