Notes

We love our cocktail sauce on the spicy side. If you don't then start with a teaspoon of the horseradish, then taste test and add another teaspoon until you get it to suit your tastes. 3 teaspoons is our perfect cocktail sauce.

You could also divide the sauce and make one more mild and the other spicier for a variety.
