I'm guessing they have a typo in their graphic where the tenth cheapest drink is more than the most expensive. https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/04/18/15/83780847-13320199-image-a-7_1713450033452.jpg I wonder how many other errors there are in their reporting.
the Daily Mail is just one big reporting error
color scheme is really weird. a list of prices by state would be a lot easier to understand
