MEXICAN SAN JUAN DE ULUA SHRIMP OR OYSTER COCKTAIL
(Coctel de Camorones u Ostiones, San Juan de Ulua)The author says, "In an effort to get a good mix, I sat at my favorite maestro's booth by the old fort of San Juan de Ulua in Vera Cruz. I did a surreptitious time motion study of his sauce blending, and at the end of the two hours I had eaten four cocktails and had heisted the secret formula."

MEXICAN SHRIMP COCKTAIL
I first tried something similar to this in San Antonio and could never find a recipe that really recaptured what I had there. I experimented and finally came up with this. Anyone who has tried it has begged for the recipe. Try it with tortilla chips!

MEXICAN SHRIMP IN GARLIC SAUCE
Just enough for 2, although easily doubled for 4. This dish is REALLY hot if you leave the seeds in the peppers...I LOVE IT!!! But if you feel shy, you don't have to have the jalapenos, I won't tell. Makes a good party appetizer too. Just dare some of your buddies to eat it when it's hot. :)

MEXICAN-STYLE SHRIMP COCKTAIL
You can pretty much get Mexican food like tacos and burritos in just about any corner of the country these days. However, Mexican Shrimp Cocktails don't seem to have caught on elsewhere as they have in the Bay Area. Here's my version--you can adapt your own recipe using the listed ingredients and amounts as a rough guide.

- Place chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, celery, red onion, and jalapenos is a mixing bowl. Add ketchup, cooking liquid from the shrimp, lime juice, cilantro, and hot sauce. Gently mix until ingredients are well blended.

Place reserved shrimp in a bowl; wrap with plastic wrap. Refrigerate shrimp cocktail and reserved shrimp until thoroughly chilled, 2 to 3 hours.

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN SHRIMP COCKTAIL (COCTEL DE CAMARONES ESTILO MEXICANO)
I prepare this refreshing shrimp cocktail for my family a lot during the hot summer days. Being a Mexican family, we always add Mexican hot sauce (such as Valentina® or Tapatio®) and serve with saltine crackers on the side. The trick is to start with well-chilled shrimp, ketchup, and tomato juice cocktail so it can be ready after only chilling 1 hour in the fridge. Top with additional hot sauce and avocado slices if desired. Enjoy!

MEXICAN SEAFOOD COCKTAIL
Given a choice, I'd really rather be eating a Mexican cóctel de mariscos, a tall glass filled with seafood and topped up with an extraordinary tomato salsa spiked with jalapeños and serranos, chopped onion and fresh lime juice. Whenever my travels in Mexico take me to coastal regions, I always stop by at least one beach restaurant to indulge in this stellar concoction. It is known there, aptly, as vuelve a la vida, or "return to life," whether for a diner in need of restoration or as a morning-after hangover cure.

Steps:
- Heat a stovetop grill or charcoal barbecue to high (or use broiler if desired). Place tomatoes and chiles on grill and allow to char, turning to black on all sides, about 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature; do not peel. Chop tomatoes in quarters and place in jar of a blender. Cut stems off chiles, then cut them lengthwise. Remove seeds if desired. Add chiles to blender jar, along with 1/2 teaspoon salt, the pimentón and 1 cup water. Blend to a rough purée, then pour into a bowl and let cool. You should have about 3 cups.
- Put the clams and 1 cup water in a wide skillet with lid. Set pan over high heat and bring to a boil. Cover and let cook until all clams have opened, about 5 minutes. Transfer clams and cooking juices to a large bowl and let cool. Repeat process with mussels, adding another 1 cup water to pan. Transfer to another bowl (separate from clams).
- Put shrimp in the wide skillet and cover with well-salted water. Place pan over high heat and bring to a simmer, then cook 1 minute. Remove shrimp with slotted spoon and let cool. Add squid to the same pan with simmering water and let cook just until firm, about 30 seconds. Drain squid and let cool.
- Pluck clams and mussels from their shells, reserving clam juice. Peel and devein shrimp and cut in half lengthwise.
- Thin tomato sauce with 1/2 cup clam juice. (Save mussel juice for another use; refrigerate for up to 2 days, or freeze it.) Add lime juice and adjust seasoning. Ladle a little sauce into 4 wide glasses or bowls. Add clams, mussels, shrimp, squid and crab meat to each glass. Add chopped onion and scallion to each glass, then top with remaining sauce. Gently stir with a teaspoon to distribute ingredients. Chill well. Just before serving, garnish with sliced serrano chile and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:
- Bring 1 quart (1L) of salted water to a boil. Add the shrimp and let the water return to a simmer and poach for an additional minute or two. Scoop the shrimp out and place onto a rimmed baking sheet and chill 30 minutes. The shrimp can be made a day in advance and chilled until ready to serve.
- For the sauce, stir together the ketchup, lime juice, the Mexican hot sauce, olive oil and cilantro in a large bowl. This step can be completed a day in advance, stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
- In a small strainer, rinse the onion under cold water, then shake off the excess liquid, and add to the sauce. Peel, dice and add the jicama; dice and add the cucumber. Stir in the chilled shrimp and the avocado right before serving.
- Garnish with lime and serve with tostadas, chips, or saltine crackers.
