Corozal Bay Ceviche

🦐
Photo coming soon

Vendors along Corozal's waterfront often serve ceviche in a plastic cup with a straw, meant to be sipped as much as eaten.

Fresh fish, conch, or shrimp is cured in lime juice with onion, cilantro, and habanero, then served ice-cold in cups. Bayfront stands in Corozal Town sell it as an afternoon snack overlooking Corozal Bay.

Why it's made this way: Corozal's location on the bay, right at the Mexican border, gives it easy access to fresh seafood and a ceviche style closely related to Yucatan's coastal cooking.
