Shrimp Taco Recipe
Silver Tequila Tacos

• Shrimps
• 3 tablespoons Jose Cuervo Especial Silver
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 calamansi, freshly squeezed
• Cooking Oil (lauric or vegetable)
• 1 bag, freeze-dried shrimp 
• ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• Pinch of salt and pepper

  Spicy Mayo Mix

• 1 Cup mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoon lime juice
• 2 teaspoon Jose Cuervo Especial Silver
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Pinch of salt 

Directions

1. Start off with the Spicy Mayo Mix. Combine the ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
2. Time for the shrimp marinade! In a large bowl, mix the tequila, paprika, cumin, and calamansi. Toss in the shrimp and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
3. Heat the pan to medium and sauté the garlic. As the garlic starts to brown, sauté the shrimp and marinade. Cook the shrimp under a minute, just as it starts to pink. Remove from the pan and set aside.
4. For the tacos, store bought soft-shell tacos will work well. In a non-stick pan, warm the tacos for roughly 30 seconds on both sides.
5. With everything all done, it’s time to start assembling your taco. Layer the shrimp and top it off with the spicy mayo mix and cilantro. Serve with a pitcher of Margarita with Jose Cuervo Silver.
