having a craving for shrimp cocktail got me to thinking, why buy nice shrimp and then serve it with crummy jarred cocktail sauce? so i mixed up a batch of my own. i like the extra heat of a lot of horseradish and the lime goes above and beyond the average lemon in standard recipes. cocktail sauce
1 cup chili sauce
juice of 1 lime
3 tbs horseradish
1 tbs finely chopped cilantro
mix ingredients and refrigerate. serve with shrimp. congratulate yourself on not succumbing to the lure of jarred cocktail sauce.

Great! Now I'm hungry for shrimp. Thanks a bunch :P
Now I know what I can do with the homemade horseradish I get at Christmastime from my dad.
Terrible thing happened on Christmas. My dad got some really nice shrimp, but some really crappy cocktail sauce. I ended up passing on the shrimp after eating one in the dreaded jarred concoction.
If only I had your recipe...
