We’re certainly looking forward to saying goodbye to 2020. And, there’s really no better way to wave goodbye to 2021 than with a drink in hand. Even better? One in each.
To get your wheels of inspiration turning, job-hunting site Zippia gathered some interesting data based on Google Trends, and shared what New Year’s Eve drink is the most popular in each state.
The results were equal parts expected and intriguing. 21 states will be unsurprisingly popping champagne bottles on New Year’s Eve. But, the remaining 29 are doing things a bit different. Except for Connecticut, which thinks they’re being sly by drinking Prosecco.
Oh, and Delaware, which is trying to make us worry that they’re eating fireworks by going with a Sparkler. Turns out that cocktail is made from gin, lemon juice, orange juice, and creme de violette (also found in an Aviation).
A definite surprise – tropical drinks like the Paloma are popular in states that are cold AF. Sure, citrus is best in the winter, but this seems a stretch.
Does your New Years’ Eve drink of choice match the state you call home? Or, is it finally time to pack your bags, find your inner dude, and make that move to Wyoming. After all, it’s the only state that’s on board with the White Russian.
