Inventor: William H. Jones
Tip, the company William worked for when Mountain Dew was invented, sold all the rights to Mountain Dew
to Pepsi in the 1960's.
William was working for a small soft-drink company based out of Marion, VA called the Tip Corporation. A company from Tennessee gave the Tip
Corp their recipe for an unsuccessful whiskey mixer named Mountain Dew as part of an
investment in the company.William tinkered with the recipe, tried to market it, and
failed. He then tried again, and the rest is history. In 1994, Marion was officially named the
"Home of Mountain Dew" by the Pepsi Corporation and Virginia Governor George Allen.
