    Marinated Cocktail Shrimp, I keep a couple of bags of pre-cooked cocktail shrimp in the freezer for impromptu gatherings, and here’s the method I’ve come up with to make them into a quick, more flavorful appetizer Great year round, but I often end up taking it to summer potlucks and picnics Since folks have asked me for the recipe, I figured I should probably write it up and finally share it here, too :), Can this be made the day before serving?
