  1. Peel and clean the shrimp. Using a small, sharp knife, butterfly the shrimp open by slicing almost all the way through the back side. Pat dry with paper towels and transfer back to a glass bowl.
  2. Add 1 cup of lime juice, making sure the shrimp are fully submerged. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 min.
  3. In a blender, add the peppers, olive oil, salt, and ground black pepper. Blend until smooth. Pour this mixture over the shrimp mixture. Mix until combined.
  4. Layer the cucumbers, onions, avocado, and cilantro over the top. Cover and chill for another 15 - 20 more minutes.
  5. Remove from the refrigerator and mix in 3 tablespoons Cholula® Reserva Tequila & Lime Hot Sauce. Serve with tostadas. Enjoy!
