The Sourtoe Cocktail is a world-famous (horrifying) tradition dating back to 1973. It involves drinking a shot of whisky with a mummified human toe in it.
Once the Toe touches your lips, you have officially joined the club and get a certificate to commemorate the prestigious occasion. Yukon Premier, Sandy Silver, became the 100,000th member of this one-of-a-kind club when he was served the historic tipple on July 19, 2022.
There’s just one rule when it comes to the Sourtoe: “You can drink it fast. You can drink it slow. But your lips must touch that gnarly toe.” Once you successfully complete the challenge, you’ll be awarded a certificate and get your name inside the ledger for bragging rights!

Located onsite at The Downtown, a Coast Hotel is the (in)famous Sourdough Saloon, where the biggest draw is its iconic "Sourtoe" Cocktail. Despite its unusual name — and one very unusual ingredient — it's delicious. The full recipe is a secret, but we can tell you the Sourtoe includes Yukon whiskey. The unusual and rather twisted ingredient? A severed human toe!There’s just one rule when it comes to the Sourtoe: “You can drink it fast. You can drink it slow.
