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 tsp. of the seasoning mix, about 1-1/4 cups of flour, the beer and the baking powder; place this in a third bowl. Combine the remaining flour with another 2 tsp. of the seasoning mix. Coat each shrimp with the remaining seasoning mix, then with the flour mixture, then with the batter, then with the coconut. Deep-fry the shrimp for about 1 minute and drain on paper towels.

Adapted from Chef Paul Prudhomme's Louisiana Kitchen.
A nice appetizer, though very caloric. Don't put too much batter on or it will overwhelm the poor shrimp. The dipping sauce is great for other things as well.
