This is a good solid recipe for Homemade Cocktail Sauce, however, of course, you can tweak to your own liking.

We love our cocktail sauce to have a little ‘kick’ to it, and this recipe fits the bill perfectly. Of course, you can pull back on the hot sauce if you prefer little, to no heat. Increase the prepared horseradish sauce, based on your own liking. And another great part of this delicious dipping sauce is that it can be made up to 3 days in advance
