MEXICAN COCKTAIL APPETIZER
Adapted from the Restaurant "Hook Line & Sinker" in Dallas, Texas. While in Dallas on business we run into the always busy Hook Line & Sinker (located at 3103 Lemmon Ave.) and order the Mexican Cocktail our favorite appetizer - you can order it "Spicy" or "Regular". I have dreams about this appetizer way down in Lake Charles, LA (where I live) - so my boss and I went to duplicate the recipe. One of the waiters shared the tidbit about the "special" sauce! I know it sounds strange to use the soda and ketchup; trust me it is delicious!

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN SHRIMP COCKTAIL (COCTEL DE CAMARONES ESTILO MEXICANO)
I prepare this refreshing shrimp cocktail for my family a lot during the hot summer days. Being a Mexican family, we always add Mexican hot sauce (such as Valentina® or Tapatio®) and serve with saltine crackers on the side. The trick is to start with well-chilled shrimp, ketchup, and tomato juice cocktail so it can be ready after only chilling 1 hour in the fridge. Top with additional hot sauce and avocado slices if desired. Enjoy!
