An excellent, traditional cocktail sauce. It has more horseradish bite than most store bought sauces and is less sweet. This is a definate improvement in my book!

Fantastic recipe. Sometimes I kick it up a little by adding a tbs of tequila like the tequila cocktail sauce recipe from this site as well. Depends if I have some in the house and who my crowd is.

I agree, you can't go wrong with this sauce. Easy to make and stores well in a freezer for future parties. I made a huge batch, froze a bunch and used at a second party. It was better the second time around.

Crazy good! And so simple! Previously, my husband only liked 1 brand of jar sauce-- and then my local market stopped carrying it. I tried every other market in my area, but no luck-- so I decided to try to make my own. But even better than that, I made Al's :) I confess that I reduced the amount of horseradish b/c hubby doesn't love the kick as much as I do-- so I reduced it for him, divided the batch in half, and then added more to mine :) Thanks Al-- I need never buy cocktail sauce again!

What an amazing little cocktail sauce! Absolutely delicious---the tang of the lemon and the sweetness of the brown sugar really give it that "something extra." This is my new go-to cocktail sauce, and what I will serve with our cocktail shrimp at dinner tonight :). Thanks for the recipe!

I did have fresh horseradish but I think the jarred stuff that some people used might actually be better in this for textural reasons and because you MUST make this! So if the only reason you don't is because of the horseradish don't worry.

I am usually not a fan of cocktail sauce, but this was great! I substituted prepared horseradish for fresh and it worked fine. This recipe was so simple and much yummier than bottled cocktail sauces! I served it with shrimp, and I should have made a double batch of cocktail sauce because I ran out before the shrimp were gone!

I have made this twice now. The first time I bought a horseradish root and minced it as fine as I could- I didn't like the results. I was able to find horseradish made by BoarsHead that was just finely diced and it made all the difference in the world. This is a great recipe and very flavorful.

Wow! I just made this on a whim thinking I might want some shrimp and this is amazing. The perfect cocktail sauce. I definitely don't need to buy store bought again. Like others I didn't have fresh horseradish on hand so I used the kind in a jar. Wonderful! I highly recommend this recipe.

Living at the shore I have tried a lot of cocktail sauces and this is by far the best. My hubby's comment was "This you should find on the store shelves!" SUPER describes it perfectly!

I've been making this for many years! So much better than store bought and cheap to make. You can add a little grated onion too.

This beats the cocktail sauce I get in some of those fish houses! I used the fresh grated horseradish and fresh squeezed lemon. The best ingredients make the best food.

Fantastic! I'm in Sweden temporarily and you can't buy the typical "cocktail sauce" here, so I was forced to give it a try. I actually bought Heinz Chili Sauce instead of using ketchup and it turned out fantastic! Chili sauce is very similar to ketchup here, and if you can find it in the US gives it a much better start than ketchup.
