Jose's Shrimp Ceviche

I've searched the web, high and low, and haven't found a shrimp ceviche recipe quite like this one! My friends absolutely love it and beg me for the recipe! You can always double it for larger parties — it goes fast! Serve it as a dip with tortilla chips or on a tostada spread with mayo. The fearless palate might like this with hot sauce.
