History
The Henny Highball was created by the team here at TT Liquor as a light and refreshing spritz showcasing the depth and complexity of this fine French cognac. Hennessy VS is one of the world’s most well known and popular cognacs but this traditional French spirit is often thought of as a warming wintry drink. Whilst cognac’s warming properties are certainly well-founded, this grape-based spirit has a wealth of fruity complexity that lends itself just as well to light, fresh cocktails as it does to stronger, more autumnal offerings.
The Henny Highball is a simple but effective mixture of Hennessy VS, peach bitters and peach and jasmine soda. The peach flavour pairs well with the subtle fruit notes of the cognac and highlights its light, floral flavour profile.
