Pink Cocktail Sauce Recipe
Does anyone have a recipe for the Pink Cocktail sauce that is served with shrimp? It is popular in Florida restaurants. I have done a pretty thorough search on the internet and have save quite a few, but would appreciate posts from anyone that has a zippy pink sauce recipe they use.

Here, typically, cocktail sauce is red. Not sure if this is the same thing you're talking about. We just mix ketchup and horseradish to taste.

I believe this may be what you are looking for. Mix mayonaise with ketchup. Add some worchestire sauce and a little garlic powder as well as a squeeze of lemon juice. Some people add a little yellow mustard and Zataran or Cajun seasoning.

I mix ketchup, horseradish, and Worcestershire sauce. I don't have measurements, just the dump method - to taste. I like this a lot better than the bottle from the store.

I make mine just about the same as rocklady, but I do add lemon juice to taste...it just seems to bring out the flavor for us.

My FIL's secret sauce is
½ cup mayonnaise ½ cup ketchup few dashes Texas Pete hot sauce (like Louisiana hot sauce) few dashes juice from pickled hot peppers But in a pinch he would mix cocktail sauce and tartar sauce in equal parts. The pickled hot peppers are just hot peppers soaked in vinegar in the refrigerator indefinitely. |
Many years ago I worked at a restaurant and they just used to mix Worcestershire Sauce, Tomato Sauce, and Vanilla Ice-cream. No set amounts just enough to do the number of people at the time, and taste it and add a bit more of whatever it needs, eg.. more colour, add a bit more tomato sauce, or more kick, add more Worcestershire etc.....Stir it in a little dish until it tastes just as you want. You always have those ingredients around, and it's quick and easy. I am Australian and the ketchup we get here is a bit strong and most people use tomato sauce on pies etc.
