1/3 cup tequila
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno pepper, with seeds
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
32 large shrimp, peeled and deveined

Steps:

To make the marinade: whisk the marinade ingredients together in a small bowl.
Put the shrimp in a large zip-lock heavy-duty plastic bag; pour in the marinade.
Press the air out and seal bag; turn the bag to distribute the marinade; place in a bowl, and refrigerate 30-45 minutes.
Remove shrimp from bag and discard marinade.
Thread shrimp onto skewers; season with salt.
Grill over direct heat 2-4 minutes, until the shrimp are just opaque in the center and firm to touch, turning once halfway through grilling time.
Remove from grill and serve warm with lime wedges.
