The shrimp turn out perfectly tender when cooked with cinnamon and bay leaf, and they taste amazing with the tangy cocktail sauce. I always prepare the sauce two days ahead to save time – it’s one of my favorite hosting tips. #shrimpcocktail #appetizer #foodie Cocktail Shrimp Recipes, Fresh Horseradish, Classic Appetizers, Cocktail Sauce, Shrimp Cocktail, Cooking Together, Food Words, Food Safety, Appetizers For Party
