Best Grilled shrimp cocktail

To make a Grilled Shrimp Cocktail, simply take a shrimp, butter it and place it on a plate. Along with that, add your choice of flavors. I love shrimp, so I normally use a lime as a base for my flavors. Then, I add an ingredient to help take that base flavor and make it even more tasty. Typically, I will add either black pepper or garlic to give that base flavor, along with the lemon juice.
