How to Make Bloody Mary Shrimp Cocktail Betty Crocker

  1. In a 1-quart saucepan, combine 2 cups tomato juice, 1/2 cup vodka, 2 tablespoons horseradish, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1 tablespoon hot sauce. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Stir in 1 tablespoon sugar.
  3. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Stir in 1 teaspoon celery salt and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley.
  5. Allow the marinade to cool completely. This is crucial to prevent overcooking the shrimp.
  6. Add 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp to a large gallon-sized zip-top bag.
  7. Pour the cooled Bloody Mary marinade over the shrimp, ensuring they are fully submerged. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, but no more than 3 hours.
  8. While the shrimp marinate, prepare your cocktail sauce. Mix 1 cup of your favorite cocktail sauce with 1/4 cup chopped green olives.
  9. Remove shrimp from the marinade using a slotted spoon.
  10. Arrange the shrimp in oversized martini or margarita glasses.
  11. Serve immediately with the cocktail sauce and toothpicks.
