Brown Butter, Shallot, and Thyme Risotto:
.5 cup arborio rice
1 shallot
2 cloves of garlic
1 tbsp butter
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp cooking wine
3 sprigs of thyme
5 cups chicken stock
Parmesan cheese
Finely mince shallot and garlic. In a large pan add in olive oil, followed by shallot, garlic, and salt and pepper. Let cook 2 minutes. In a separate pot bring chicken stock to a boil and reduce heat to low to keep warm. Add in rice and toast 1 minute. Add in .5 tbsp butter and let melt and brown. Deglaze pan with cooking wine and then add stock using a ladle. Slowly add stock after rice absorbs the previous ladle-full. Continue to add stock and cook until rice is creamy and cooked through. ~20-40 minutes. Add in remaining butter and parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

1 oz vodka
1.5 oz strawberry pucker
4-5 oz fresh squeezed orange juice
