Yukon Dew is a mixed-drink, created by mixing equal parts Yukon Jack whiskey and Mountain Dew soda. Yukon Jack is a honey-based Canadian whiskey advertised as the "Black sheep of Canadian Liquors". In the USA, it is sold as 100 proof; in Canada its 80 proof. Yukon Jack is produced by Diageo Inc. Yukon Jack is made in Valleyfield, Quebec. Bottles available for sale in the US are imported and then bottled in Hartford, Connecticut. Its taste is sweeter than comparable american whiskeys, drawing from the honey it is brewed with, but then has a rougher bite than something like Jack Daniels.
Mountain Dew is a highly-caffeinated citrus-flavored carbonated soft drink brand produced and owned by PepsiCo. The Mountain Dew brand and production rights were acquired by the Pepsi-Cola company in 1964, at which point its distribution expanded widely across the United States.
When mixing equal parts Yukon Jack and Mountain Dew, one creates a mixed drink that is smooth, sweet with a citrusy flavor, yet gives a gentle buzz due to the combination of alcohol and caffeine. It has the magic property of helping separate women from their clothing.

Yukon Canada - the smallest & westernmost of Canada's three territories. It also is the 2nd-least populated province or territory in Canada .
bordering the U.S. state of Alaska to the west & northwest , The Northwest Territories to the east & British Columbia to the south mostly northern coast is on the Beaufort Sea. Its ragged eastern boundary mostly follows the divide between the Yukon Basin and the Mackenzie River drainage basin to the east in the Mackenzie mountains.
Whitehorse is the capital of Yukon.
Whitehorse is known for many things. It played a major role in the 1898 Klondike Gold Rush as a supply center for prospectors and stampeders heading to Dawson City.
The Yukon has a wide array of cultural & sporting events that attract artists, local residents, & tourists. Annual events include Klondike Gold Rush memorials.
The Yukon's Aboriginal culture is also strongly reflected in such areas as winter sports, as in the Yukon Quest sled dog races .
Aside from Yukon's influential First Nations groups, which include about 25 % of the total population, the territory also contains a strong French-speaking community. Several trading posts & art galleries sell handmade jewelry, carvings, & clothing made by talented locals.
Traditional First Nations dishes such as bannock & smoked salmon are a hallmark of Yukon's cuisine as well as caribou
Meat ( venison) lest we forget Poutine.

Yukon Canada was split from the North-West Territories in 1898 as the Yukon Territory. The federal government's Yukon Act, which received royal assent on March 27, 2002
Though officially bilingual (English & French), the Yukon government also recognizes First Nations languages.
The Klondike Gold Rush attracted prospectors who flocked to the Yukon & dog sleds became the standard mode of transportation.
If you grew up in the 1990s you may remember a cartoon
Called Yoink of the Yukon

The Yukon Territory, believed to exist by many, may actually be naught but a fantasy of the Canadian Geographic Society.

A practical code of dress for people attending formal-type events north of the 60th parallel. Comfort and versatility are key components to this code, and there are absolutely no gender-based rules, because in the Yukon "the men are men, and women are too". Sturdy footwear such as Blundstones, Xtratuf boots, hiking boots, or really any type of boot are a staple to any outfit. Clothing should be appropriate to take you from day to evening, which in the Yukon could be anything from hunting grizzly bears to drinking a Sourtoe Cocktail at the bar. The 'formal' part of the code is open to interpretation and could include anything from a fancy tie or scarf to a fitted suit or dress. Outfits should be appropriate for a wide range of weather and temperatures, as these can vary greatly in Yukon. It is acceptable and encouraged to bring a small bag with extra layers, jackets or even a complete change of clothes should the need arise. It also must be accepted that whatever outfit you choose may be subject to bonfire smoke. The more facial hair the better, as beards are warm and can be dressed up or down.
Robyn: I hear the dress code for Dan and Kristina's wedding is "Yukon formal", what are you guys wearing?
Christie: I'm wearing a skirt, Paul is wearing Blundstones with his suit, and we're both bringing a sweater and rain jacket!
Robyn: Great! I think I'll wear my hiking boots, a nice pair of pants and my fancy scarf!
