America's favorite kind is black tea, which accounts for more than half of all tea consumed in the country. Fruit and herbal tea, which accounts for just over a quarter of U.S. tea consumption, is second on the list. But neither has managed to grow in recent years—fruit and herbal tea consumption has risen by 7 percent in the U.S. since 2000, while black tea consumption has fallen by nearly 2.5 percent over the same period.

Coffee is a beloved drink of millions of people around the world. It is so loved that it has spawned all sorts of endearing nicknames. Two of the most common are "java" and "cup of joe." Historians believe that the "cup of joe" didn't first enter the English language until about 1930. That common nickname has been around for a long time, but its origins are still mysterious. Several theories have been put forth, but none of them can claim to be the definitive explanation.

Even if you know nothing about cocktails, chances are you've at least heard of an Old Fashioned. Made with just four ingredients – whiskey, sugar, Angostura bitters, and an optional (but recommended) orange peel or Luxardo cherry garnish – the Old Fashioned is up there with other cocktail greats like the Manhattan, Negroni, and Sazerac. It's super simple to make, too, as is appropriate for a cocktail designed to highlight its main ingredient – whiskey!

All 50 U.S. states have set their minimum legal drinking age (MLDA) to 21, although exceptions do exist on a state-by-state basis for alcohol consumption at home, under adult supervision, for medical necessity, and other reasons. Each state was allowed to set its own alcohol consumption laws following the 1933 adoption of the 21st Amendment on Dec. 5, 1933. The amendment repealed alcohol prohibition. Most states established 21 as the MLDA. However, Illinois and Oklahoma set the MLDA at 21 for men and 18 for women in 1933.

Champagne is a classic sparkling wine named for the site of its origin and exclusive production, the traditional region of Champagne in northeastern France. The term champagne is also applied generically, with restrictions, outside France, to many white or rosé wines that are characterized by effervescence. In the United States, sparkling wines made in a similar manner are designated first by place of origin, as in New York state champagne. Similar wines from Spain and elsewhere are often called “champagne-style.”

Originally from Oceania, sugar cane is a grass with a stalk about five centimeters in diameter and can grow up to six meters tall. The juice in its stalk may contain up to 15% sucrose. Over the centuries, sugar cane migrated from east to west: Christopher Columbus brought it to Santo Domingo on his second trip to America in 1493.

Bourbon (/bɜːrbən/) is a type of American whiskey, a barrel-aged distilled liquor made primarily from corn. The name derives from the French Bourbon dynasty, although the precise inspiration is uncertain; contenders include Bourbon County in Kentucky and Bourbon Street in New Orleans, both of which are named after the dynasty. The name "Bourbon" was not applied until the 1850s, and the Kentucky etymology was not advanced until the 1870s. Bourbon has been distilled since the 18th century. Although bourbon may be made anywhere in the United States, it is strongly associated with the American South in general, and with Kentucky in particular. Born in Kentucky, bourbon has been the USA's national spirit since 1964.

A latte, also known as a caffè latte, is a milky coffee originating in Italy, served with a silky layer of foam. They're similar to cappuccinos, but there are some obvious differences - mostly in the ratios of milk, water, and coffee, coming together to create a perfectly balanced milky coffee that possesses an aesthetically pleasing look and an irresistible texture. A latte or caffé latte is a type of coffee drink that uses one or two shots of espresso, lots of steamed milk, and a final, thin layer of frothed milk on top, perfect for latte foam art.

Negroni is a cocktail made with equal parts gin, sweet vermouth, and Campari. Although its origin is unclear, it is believed that this cocktail was invented in Florence in 1919 by Count Camillo Negroni, who wanted to improve his favorite drink - the Americano - by replacing soda with gin. The cocktail was so popular that the Count started to produce its ready-made version in a distillery. Due to its bitterness, Negroni is considered an apéritif, and it is typically served on the rocks in an old-fashioned glass with an orange wheel garnish.

The truth is that liquor actually can freeze if the temperature is low enough. The freezing point for pure ethanol is actually -175°F or -115°C. On the other hand, water freezes at 32°F or 0°C. Your standard freezer just isn’t cold enough to do the trick. The freezing point is so low for some liquors due to the ethanol content. That is also why beer and wine can freeze if left in your freezer long enough. Since wine and beer have lower alcohol content, they can freeze more easily. But vodka, rum, whiskey, tequila, brandy, and gin have a much higher alcohol content, making them much more difficult to freeze.

The usual Mimosa recipe blends champagne with orange juice and a touch of triple sec. But you can use any orange liqueur you like. This drink is most often served as a brunch cocktail. And it works so well in that capacity because it’s low in alcohol and high in vitamin C. It doesn’t require expensive champagne, although I wouldn’t necessarily get the cheapest bottle possible.

Curdled milk will upset your stomach if you drink it straight, but it actually serves a variety of culinary purposes, so knowing how to curdle milk is a skill that can come in handy in the kitchen. Milk contains a protein called casein. Casein groupings are usually spread evenly throughout milk, but when milk becomes acidic, the negative charge keeping the casein groupings separate is neutralized. As a result, the casein proteins clump together, causing the milk to become grainy and curdle. Lemon juice is generally the preferred acid of choice, followed by vinegar. Both are more acidic than orange juice or other common kitchen acids. The more acid you add, the larger your curds will be and the faster they will form. For smaller “grains” of curds, use a smaller amount of acid.

Cider is an alcoholic beverage made from the fermented juice of apples. Cider is widely available in the United Kingdom (particularly in the West Country) and the Republic of Ireland. The UK has the world's highest per capita consumption, as well as the largest cider-producing companies. In the U.S., varieties of fermented cider are often called hard cider to distinguish alcoholic cider from non-alcoholic apple cider or "sweet cider", also made from apples. In Canada, cider cannot contain less than 2.5% or over 13% absolute alcohol by volume. The juice of most varieties of apples, including crab apples, can be used to make cider, but cider apples are best. The addition of sugar or extra fruit before a second fermentation increases the ethanol content of the resulting beverage.

A frappé coffee, or just frappe, is a Greek iced coffee drink generally made from spray-dried instant coffee, water, sugar, and milk. The frappé was invented in 1957 through experimentation by a Nescafe representative. This Greek invention should not be confused with the Frappuccino, a trademarked name now owned by Starbucks. The Frappuccino was invented in Boston, Massachusetts in 1992 by Andrew Frank, an employee of the Coffee Connection. The name derives from "frappe"— the New England name for a thick milkshake with ice cream, derived from the French word lait frappé (beaten milk)—and cappuccino.

Beer is one of the oldest and the most widely consumed alcoholic drink in the world. The third most popular drink overall after water and tea - it is produced by the brewing and fermentation of starches, mainly derived from cereal grains—most commonly from malted barley, though wheat, maize (corn), rice, and oats are also used. During the brewing process, fermentation of the starch sugars in the wort produces ethanol and carbonation in the resulting beer. Most modern beer is brewed with hops, which add bitterness and other flavors and act as a natural preservative and stabilizing agent.
