Cocktail sauce is a zesty, cold condiment commonly used in American cuisine, especially as a dipping sauce for seafood like shrimp and oysters. Typically made from a blend of ketchup or chili sauce, horseradish, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce, it delivers a bold combination of tanginess and heat. While cocktail sauce is low in fat, it can be high in added sugars and sodium due to the ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. It does offer some health benefits from ingredients like horseradish, which may aid digestion, and lemon juice, which provides vitamin C. However, moderation is key to avoid excessive sodium and sugar intake. With its vibrant flavor profile, cocktail sauce adds an appealing kick to dishes but is best enjoyed in small amounts alongside nutrient-rich seafood options.
