One of the traditions of Dawson City is to drink Sourtoe cocktail at the Sourdough Saloon, Yukon. It is a human toe drink that has been dehydrated and mummified. Watch my Road to the Arctic Ocean series, BC: The first toe is said to have belonged to a miner in 1920s, who had his frostbitten toe amputated and preserved it in a jar of alcohol. 1973, Yukon local Captain Dick Stevenson brought the toe down to the Sourdough Saloon in Downtown Hotel. It was made a drink challenge for the brave. And that’s how the Sourtoe Cocktail Club was formed. Today, you can try your hand at the drink and get your name written in as part of the sour toe cocktail club. You even get a certificate! Costs of the cocktail is $5 plus the cost of the whiskey you choose. ➱ SUBSCRIBE ✈ ✈ ➱ Tap Notifications to get updates to your Inbox when I post. ✈ ✈ ➱ YOUTUBE PLAYLISTS Arctic Trip Series:
