This Mexican Shrimp Cocktail is a perfect appetizer to start a special dinner with a glass of chilled Sutter Home Chardonnay wine to uncork the moments. The main ingredients for this cocktail is fresh seafood and a tomato cocktail sauce made with cold orange soda (which I am replacing with fresh orange juice), tomato ketchup, hot sauce, lime juice and spices. Then topped with avocado and pico de gallo salsa and served with saltines.
1tablespoonof sazon latino (cuminsalt, oregano and pepper)
