Who doesn't love a cup of Joe to wake them up in the morning? Whether it's before you head into work, drop the kids off at school, or just to feel more awake and lively, coffee has always been your "get it done" friend.
Coffee has been a staple in the American diet since the Boston Tea Party of 1773, when patriots to our nation threw the imported leaves into the harbor. Ever since then, Americans have been drinking that delicious brew and staying hard at work.
But it appears that some states love this hot beverage way more than others, and many would be surprised to see how hard, or how easy, it is for their fellow citizens to get access to the real magic beans.
