Notes: In Mexico, saltine crackers are often served with seafood cocktails like this. Ingredients:

1/3 cup tequila |
3 tablespoons lime juice |
1/3 cup finely chopped onion, rinsed and drained |
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro |

2 firm-ripe avocados (1 to 1 1/4 lb. total) |
3/4 pound shelled cooked shrimp (50 to 70 per lb.), rinsed |
kosher or regular salt |
lime wedges |
tortilla chips or saltine crackers |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, stir together tomato and chili cocktail mix, tequila, lime juice, onion, cilantro, and 2 teaspoons chili.
2. Pit and peel avocados; cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Add avocados and shrimp to cocktail mixture. Mix gently and add salt and more chili to taste.
3. If desired, rub rims of 4 to 6 margarita or martini glasses with a lime wedge. Immediately dip into a dish filled with 1/4 inch kosher salt.
4. Spoon avocado-shrimp cocktail equally into glasses. Garnish with lime wedges and serve with tortilla chips or saltine crackers.
