For a really great shrimp cocktail, you want to go with large shrimp. I use a 21-25 count, which means there are 21-25 shrimp per pound. Buy them deveined but uncooked. Easy-peel or already peeled is fine.
If you think the shrimp might be sitting out at room temperature for a while, it is a good idea to present the shrimp on a bed of ice cubes either on a platter or a shallow serving bowl. Make sure to have a bowl of lemon wedges on the side or you can place it on the platter with the shrimp.
