Tips:

  • Chill the Cocktail Before Serving: The crayfish cocktail should be chilled for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help to firm up the crayfish and make the flavors more pronounced.
  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley, or chives, can be used to garnish the crayfish cocktail. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
