I first tried something similar to this in San Antonio and could never find a recipe that really recaptured what I had there. I experimented and finally came up with this. Anyone who has tried it has begged for the recipe. Try it with tortilla chips!

This was a delicious and refreshing cocktail. I made it for a party and it was a big hit. The only change I made was to use cooked shrimp instead of raw shrimp. I will definitely be making this again.
