Mexican Cocktail Christmas Eve

Campechana - Chopped onion, chopped jalapenas, chopped cucmber, Shrimp, Crab ( normally use Octopus but the wife does not care for it), Tomato juice, clamato juice ( picante), Tabasco sauce, Worcestershire sauce, course ground black pepper, cilantro, the juice of a fresh lime or two. Let sit for a couple hours ( overnight is better) I like to add green tomatillo salsa to mine! I also top it off with some Avacado slices

 

I like the looks of that! Cheers!

 

For an added touch I sometimes add a little Tequila Anejo

 

'Painting the Lily', Lou! (if I may paraphrase Shakespeare in a beverage thread).
I love all the ingredients—including the octopus!

 

This reminds me of a cross between ceviche and a michelada (minus the beer).

Sounds delicious...

 

Very nasty! Felice Navidad!

 

Glad you enjoy it but I wouldn't touch that. .. and I'm mexican.

 

I'd be all over that. Looks good.

 

I pretty much love anything with cilantro and/or lime and this stuff sounds droolicious. I will have to try it (minus the octopus as well). Thanks for posting!

 

I'm in for the octopus. No problem.

 

I think a spoon would be mandatory... but I'd try it. I like bloody mary's anyway... this is a stylized version it seems.
