Meh. Not my favorite. The shrimp were a bit overcooked and the sauce was too spicy for my taste.

These shrimp were amazing! The Bloody Mary sauce was the perfect blend of sweet, sour, and spicy. The shrimp were cooked to perfection and had a nice crispy coating. I will definitely be making these again.

Just made these for a party and they were a hit! I marinated the shrimp for a couple of hours before cooking, and they were so flavorful and juicy. The Bloody Mary sauce was tangy and spicy, but not too overpowering. I would definitely recommend this
