In this episode of On the House, Raymond Schmitz, bartender and mixologist at the Sear + Sea Lobby Bar at the JW Marriott Orlando Bonnet Creek, demonstrates how to make the Can’t Elope cocktail.

The drink weds fresh cantaloupe and lime juice with vodka. The drink also includes a foaming agent that usually is made with egg whites. Schmitz is using Fee Foam, a vegan alternative, but you can use a conventional agent. The Sear + Sea bar also stocks Aquafaba brand.

Watch the video and then give it a try for yourself. Or just head to the JW and let the experts shake one up for you.
