Ingredients

2 pounds of large cooked shrimp cut into chunks
3 celery ribs diced about 1 ¼ cups
1 cup of scallions thinly sliced

Sauce

½ cup ketchup
¼ cup ice cold vodka
¼ cup lemon juice
2-3 TBS horseradish to your taste (I only use Kelchner's - the best)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
5-6 dashes Tabasco

Instructions

Combine shrimp pieces (make sure they are blotted dry), celery and scallions in a medium bowl. Set aside.
In a small bowl combine all sauce ingredients and whisk until well incorporated.
Pour over shrimp mixture. Mix well.
Let it sit for at least an hour and up to overnight.
Serve in small shooter cups with small spoons, on Chinese style spoons or on endive spears. (Did you know...Endive is a great source of Folate, fiber and vitamins A and K...eat up!)
Tip for endives: Slowly separate endives, slice a bit off of the core as you break each stalk off. The endive spears will get smaller and smaller. Place them on a serving platter. When ready to serve fill each with a bit of the mixture.
Enjoy!

Notes

Optional: Add in a splash of pickle juice or pepperoncini juice, YUM!
