I think these shrimp skewers are the best I have eaten! The little sauce with lime, garlic and honey is just perfect. The pepper flakes bring a little spicy kick that is too interesting.

Serve with rice, drizzle with reserved fresh marinade and garnish with fresh parsley!

Our sommeliers suggest

Domaine du Tariquet Sauvignon Blanc

Southwest, France

Domaine du Tariquet Sauvignon Blanc is a fruity, lively white from Southwest France, and it loves shrimp like this. Its zing picks up the lime juice and zest in the marinade, while the fruit softens the little kick of the chili flakes and rounds out the honey. Chill it well, grab a skewer with the other hand, and call it summer. See the product

Miss Ghost, 4.5%

La Pêcheresse

The lime is already in the marinade and the gose has plenty of it in the glass: same aroma, twice. Its saltiness clings to the shrimp's, and its acidity does the job of the lemon you'd normally squeeze on. A beer for the side of the barbecue, served very cold while it all grills. See the product

*Pairings are suggestions. If you can't find the exact product, substitute for the same type of beer or varietal blend from the same region. Feel free to ask a consultant for help!
