Hennessy Henny Rita RTD Cocktail
18% ABV (36 proof) | 375mL glass bottle | Ready-to-drink cognac cocktail | Official Maison Hennessy release — June 2026 — Hennessy Henny-Rita is Hennessy's cognac-based twist on the margarita: bright natural lime flavor with round citrus and the toasted notes of genuine Hennessy Very Special, ready to pour from a 375mL glass bottle. Part of the first-ever ready-to-drink line from Maison Hennessy, crafted under 8th-generation Master Blender Renaud Fillioux de Gironde and launched nationwide in June 2026 as part of the "Henny Season" summer campaign. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
The margarita gets a cognac soul here — lime brightness up front, then the round citrus and toasted oak-spice depth that only real V.S brings. Serve it over ice with a salted rim and it plays the Rita role convincingly, no shaker required. SRP $15.99. Among ready-to-drink cocktails, a cognac margarita is something only Hennessy could credibly bottle. (Official press spelling is "Henny-Rita"; the product title "Henny Rita" is retained as-is.)
