  10. For best results - allow your shrimp cocktail to chill for at least 2 hours at a minimum.

  11. Serve with Avocado slices, quality crackers, lime wedges and Tabasco or Tapitio Hot Sauce. Garnish with fresh Cilantro. Always add your Avacado just before serving. Otherwise you'll have a murkey looking cocktail. Enjoy!
