Vodka Dip for Shrimp

At parties and holidays, I love to serve a glorious platter of shrimp. However, I do get tired for the same old cocktail sauce. This is elegant and different, and definitely jazzes things up a bit. I must warn you, this recipe make a lot (3-1/2 cups).

Ingredients

• 4  teaspoons  A.1. Original Sauce
