The drinks come in three flavors including the Henny Rito, Henny Iced Tea and Henny Berry, which feature an ABV ranging from 18% to 22%, depending on the variety.
The Hennessy Henny Cocktails come as the brand's response to the popularity of ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails and consumers continue to gravitate towards alcohol products that prioritize convenience, but also freshly prepared flavors.
