Steps to make Shrimp cocktail:

1. boil shrimp in salt water (large pot, 1Tbsp salt) if shrimp r precooked defrost fully in cold water instead of boiling them. tips: bring water to boil before throwing shrimp in, they will float to the surface when done. dont leave the shrimp in too long, you want them tender not chewy!
2. cool shrimp in cold water ( ice speeds up the process of coarse.) when cooled, or defrosted, peel shrimp and devein (to devein shrimp, run a paring knife along the outer curve of the shrimp almost 1/4in deep from top to bottom youll see it!) its poop u dont want to eat that part!
3. throw the shrimp in the bowl with all other ingredients, toss well, but gently u dont want to mash the avocado or tomatoes… chill for atleast an hour n enjoy! great with saltine crackers and a slice of lime
4. a great add-in is chunked octopus.

Only change I made was adding a little dried tarragon instead of fresh. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the sauce is the best ever! Her classic shrimp cocktail is a perfect example: it's an easy but elegant starter that shines because it calls for the very best ingredients—including a quick homemade cocktail sauce. When preparing this spread, use high-quality, sustainably sourced shrimp, and plan on about three to six shrimp per guest. Here's my favorite cocktail sauce recipe.
