The strangest and most disgusting booze on our list is the signature cocktail of the Sourtoe Cocktail Club in Dawson City. You can drink it fast, you can drink it slowly, but sooner or later your lips will touch your toe - an obligatory element of the cocktail.
The legend of the first "Sourtoe" dates back to the 1920s. Two bootleggers - Louis Linken and his brother Otto - were caught in a terrible snowstorm while crossing the border with another batch of alcohol. Louis got off the sled to steer the dog sled, but one foot fell through the ice and lost his boot. Fearing that the police would go on their trail, the brothers continued on their way. Unfortunately, due to prolonged exposure to the cold, Louis's thumb froze. In order to prevent gangrene, the loyal Otto performed the amputation using a conventional ax and rum for anesthesia. To commemorate this event, the brothers kept their finger in a jar of alcohol. This can was discovered many years later by Captain Dick Stevenson. After consulting with friends, the captain created the Sourtoe cocktail club and developed the rules for an elite club, membership in which is impossible without drinking a finger-containing drink.
Since the opening of the bar, 10 fingers have already been donated to him. Permanent members of the club have "their" fingers, but newcomers get used ones.
