Bloody Mary Shrimp Cocktail In Chinese Soup Spoons(Amuse Bouche) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

16 large shrimp, cooked peeled and deveined (large, not jumbo)

1/3 cup water
1 ounce vodka
2 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/8 teaspoon sugar
salt and pepper, to taste
1 dash cayenne pepper (or to taste)
1 jalapeno, sliced into rounds and seeds removed (optional, for garnish. I even like the canned pickled jalapeno slices,if I'm in a hurry)

Preparation

Whisk the tomato paste and water in a measuring cup until smooth (the mixture should be of a somewhat thick consistency). Add the vodka, lemon juice, horseradish, and sugar. Season to taste with the salt, pepper, and cayenne.
Serve individually in 16 porcelain Chinese soup spoons by adding about a 1/2 tablespoon of sauce into each spoon, topped with a shrimp and a jalapeno slice, if desired. Serve chilled.
