Called YYES, the premix drink variety follows on from the launch of SKYY's #CheersToEquality campaign.

One dollar from every YYES product sold will be donated to the Just.Equal organisation, to support its ongoing work in addressing the needs of LGBTI Australians through lobbying, community consultation, and social media.
