Steps:

• Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, five-spice powder, salt, black pepper, cayenne, and beer until smooth. In another bowl, combine the shredded coconut with the bread crumbs. Holding the shrimp by the tail, dip them into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off, and then dip them into the coconut bread crumbs (turning and pressing to get full coverage). Keeping one hand dry will make this whole process neater.
