I have been making this for years and whipped some up the other night for some icy cold boiled shrimp. I added another half teaspoon of horseradish because we like it spicy. Very good! -
This is how my mom makes cocktail sauce, sometimes she uses mayo as well .. its really easy and good!! -
This is exactly how I have always made cocktail sauce, but I always add a shake or two of Lea & Perrins too. It's so easy and tastes so much better than even the good bottled stuff. Once you taste how fresh this is, you'll never buy prepared sauce again! -
I always make my cocktail sauce this way. I don't always measure, though. Some friends like a little more horseradish; others like a little less. This seems to have so much more flavor than any purchased bottled stuff. -

This is VERY good and as another reviewer said, there is no reason to buy the pre-made kind. I did replace 1/4 of the ketchup with chili sauce.
