Tennessee bottlers Barney and Ally Hartman developed Mountain Dew as a mixer in the 1940s. Soft drinks were sold regionally in the 1930s, and the Hartmans had difficulty in Knoxville obtaining their preferred soda to mix with liquor, preferably whiskey, so the two developed their own.

“DO THE DEW” is the original slogan of Mountain Dew.

Dale Earnhardt, in full Ralph Dale Earnhardt, (born April 29, 1951, Kannapolis, N.C., U.S. - died Feb. 18, 2001, Daytona Beach, Fla.), American stock-car racer who was the dominant driver in the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) during the 1980s and '90s.

Description. Original Mountain Dew is a citrus-flavored soda. The soft drink is unique because it includes a small amount of orange juice. While some have compared Mountain Dew to lemon-lime soda, it is antithetically different and unique from them and has spawned many imitators from the Original Mountain Dew.

The phrase "mountain dew" was actually slang for mountain-brewed moonshine, write Tabitha Waggoner and Jessica Davis for the Tennessean. The reporters offer up proof in the form of an Appalachian folk song that most certainly isn't talking about the soda, but rather "good ol' mountain dew," the liquor.

moonshine "Mountain Dew" was originally Southern and/or Scots-Irish slang for moonshine (i.e., homemade whiskey or poitín), as referenced in the Irish folk song "The Rare Old Mountain Dew", dating from 1882. Using it as the name for the soda was originally suggested by Carl E. Retzke at an Owens-Illinois Inc.

The “Do the Dew” phrase, common in American households since its premiere 20 years ago, is “really about being an instigator and making things happen. It's more about enjoying the moment you're in,” said Simon Lowden, senior vice president and chief marketing officer of Pepsi Beverages North America.

To go with his on-track success (26 Cup wins - including two Daytona 500s - and two Xfinity Series championships), Earnhardt used his stardom to extend the boundaries of NASCAR's awareness around the world. In other words, Earnhardt helped make NASCAR more famous.

“Do it for Dale” is a pretty poplar reference in the nascar community. Earnhardt died in the most legendary racing accident in history while also being the most legendary racer to live. After his death, “Do it for Dale” became a popular phrase about racing fast, but racing safe to win.
