	Ale-8-One	Kentucky	A ginger and citrus blend, containing less carbonation and fewer calories than conventional soda, Ale-8-One was first sold in 1920s Prohibition-era Kentucky—according to the company, thirsty locals used it as a mixer to improve the taste of bootleg liquor.[5] Often abbreviated as Ale-8, the name Ale-8-One is itself a pun on the original title; it was originally called "A Late One" after a contest was held at a county fair to name the beverage.
	Apple Beer	Utah	Non-alcoholic and uncaffeinated, this Salt Lake City brew is an American variant of the Bavarian Fassbrause. It is commonly used as a non-alcoholic alternative for celebratory toasts (in Utah, religious abstinence[6] from both alcohol and caffeine is not uncommon).

Because of the rarity and price of Kona coffee, some retailers sell "Kona Blends"—which are often the minimum required 10% Kona coffee and 90% cheaper imported beans.

In recent years there has been renewed interest in the beverage.[25]
