Shrimp Cocktail with Bloody Mary Sorbet

  • ACTIVE:
  • TOTAL TIME:
  • SERVINGS: 6

For this creative first course you can use any juice made with greens (like parsely, spinach, celery or chard) from juice bars and health food stores. On the West Coast, look for the widely available bottled Hansen's mixed greens juice. Or use V8 juice instead of the greens juice, although you'll lose the color contrast with the tomato sorbet.
