I can't find the recipe, but I took a cooking class some time ago from a guy name Douglas Rodriguez on Latin soups and stuff. He focuses on central and south american cuisines and has several books. anyways, he made it with the following ingredients:

lime juice
coconut milk (unsweetened)
cilantro
serrano peppers
thai fish sauce
cumin

if I recall, lime juice and coconut milk were same amounts. cumin, cilantro and peppers of course to taste. fish sauce, couple of tbls. blended it all together. soaked fish for about an hour before we ate. he used fresh ahi tuna in one batch and I think something like halibut in the other. wouldn't think to use coconut milk, but it was by far, the best ceviche I've ever had. especially when served with fried plantains!! I've made it several times and it is simply awesome. I will throw in a habanero as well because I like them.

give it a shot. it's not typical, and guarantee you'll be asked about it afterwards.
