FOR THE SHRIMP:
Peel and devein shrimp. Bring a large sauce pot of water to a boil. Add shrimp and cook on medium for 2 minutes. Drain shrimp and rinse under cold water until cool to the touch.
To serve, place shrimp on a large plate with cocktail sauce. Or, you can also serve shrimp cocktail as pictured above, in iced shot glasses. Place a spoonful of cocktail sauce in the bottom of the iced glass and line the top of the ice with shrimp. Enjoy immediately.
