Hennessy Mixology

Discover Hennessy's guide to shaking, muddling and stirring the perfect cognac cocktail at home.

Art of the Mix

In the light of the current context, millions around the world are (re)discovering a passion for the kind of “home arts” they may never have had the time or the occasion to pursue before — cooking, baking and mixology chief among them. And there's a lot going on at the bar: Creativity is running high with seasonal, sustainable cocktail ingredients like lemon and ginger, accentuated with beautiful, edible flowers. We're delving into turning citrus peels into homemade cordials and juice into syrups. We're experimenting with ice, cutting and shaping it into precisely the right volume for the mix. Last but not least, to ensure the perfect tasting experience, we're bringing out our complete library of cocktail glasses. But even if your collection doesn't yet include a toddy, a coupe or a julep shape, don't let that hold you back! With a little support from friends of the Maison, Hennessy is here to help everyone up their bartending game, whether novice or pro.
