THE MAD MEN ERA....COCKTAILS OF EVERY KIND - THE PERFECT SHRIMP COCKTAIL

DON DRAPER SHRIMP COCKTAIL


I really love retro recipes - I think I missed my calling as the perfect June Cleaver housewife in the 50's and 60's so now I just watch Mad Men and make lots of shrimp cocktail :)  Here's the classic, perfect recipe -

1 cup catsup
1 -2 tablespoon horseradish (to your taste)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper
chilled and deveined cooked shrimp


Mix all ingredients and chill.   Serve in a martini glass with a wedge of lemon and chilled shrimp.
