So, which states are buzzing with coffee love? The Northeast and Pacific regions are the biggest hotspots for coffee lovers. Massachusetts, California, Washington, New York, and Hawaii top the list of states with the highest coffee obsession scores. These states have more coffee shops per person and more coffee-related searches.

But don't worry coffee fans in Republican-leaning states, you're not totally left in the cold brew. While most of the top coffee-loving states vote blue, there are a few exceptions that get it right. Idaho, a red state  comes in 8th place on the list with a respectable score. Ohio is also among the top-ranking red states that obsesses over their love of coffee.

So, what's behind the coffee contrasts? It looks like big cities have a big role in it. In states with bigger urban areas, there are more coffee shops and that leads to a stronger coffee culture. On the other hand, southern states, which usually vote Republican, have lower coffee craze scores. The heat, and number of coffee shop in the region's likely contribute to this difference.

In the end, despite your political flavor, coffee is loved across the board. The study sheds light on consumer trends not political statements. It doesn't really matter if you're a blue or red state resident, just enjoy the caffeinated goodness. That is something that we all can agree on.
