Instructions

For the ceviche Bloody Mary mix:

  • Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Strain and save the mix in the fridge until needed.

For the Bloody Mary shrimp ceviche:

  • Rub the onion slices with ½ tablespoon of salt and rinse well.
  • Combine the cooked shrimp, sliced tomatoes, sliced onions, lime juice, cilantro sprig and a teaspoon of salt. Let the ingredients marinate for about 30 minutes (in the fridge).
  • Remove the cilantro sprig, and add the chopped cilantro, oil, and the strained Bloody Mary juice. Mix well, taste and add Tabasco/salt to taste. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving.
  • If you are adding alcohol and/or want to separate the liquid from the shrimp, use a slotted spoon to remove the shrimp/tomatoes/onions from the mix and place them in a separate bowl (keep a bit of liquid with the shrimp so that it doesn’t dry out).
  • Serve in a tall glass all mixed together with your choice of garnishes. Or serve the Bloody Mary juice in shot glasses with the shrimp ceviche on the side.
