Three-Ingredient Cocktail Sauce

Recipe #296295 | 10 min | 5 min prep | add private note

I've never liked the bottled cocktail sauces (too sweet, too salty, never spicy enough!), so I've been making my own for years.

1 Cup (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Scrape lime to get approximately 1 teaspoon of zest. You can use a grater, but a zester really yields the intense flavor and no bitterness. Zest the lime BEFORE you cut it.
  2. 2
    Pour catsup, horseradish, lime juice & lime zest into medium bowl.
  3. 3
    Stir thoroughly.
  4. 4
    Chill & serve with shrimp or other seafood.

I will not buy store bought again. Love the flavor. We like it hot so added about 1/2 Tbsp more of the horseradish. Thanks for a keeper! Made for ZWT 4.

    Everybody liked this cocktail sauce. It's even better than the store-bought cocktail sauce. I like the taste of the lime in it. Thanks Diva. Made for the babes of ZWT4

    Nice cocktail sauce. Much better than store bought and very easy to prepare. The lime was very pronounced in this sauce--I might scale back a bit on the lime and increase the horseradish to make it a bit hotter. I agree with TLu, another 1/2 Tb would do the trick on the horseradish. Made for Zingo ZWT4.
