Coconut Beer Shrimp
A nice appetizer, though very caloric. The dipping sauce is great for other things as well.

Directions
Combine the seasoning mix together in a bowl.
Stir the dipping sauce ingredients together in a second bowl.
Have this ready at the table when the shrimp are done.
Mix together about 2 teaspoon of the seasoning mix, about 1¼ cups of flour, the beer and the baking powder, and place this in a third bowl.
Combine the remaining flour with another 2 teaspoon of the seasoning mix.
Coat each shrimp with the remaining seasoning mix, then in the flour mixture, then in the batter, then in the coconut.
Deep-fry the shrimp for about 1 minute and drain on paper towels.
