The average American's ethanol consumption per capita in 2021 was around 2.5 gallons per year, equating to about 535 alcoholic drinks annually per person.
New Hampshire topped the NIAAA survey with a remarkable 4.43 gallons of alcohol per person yearly, over 50% higher than the national average.
California, with the largest population, led the nation in total alcohol consumption at 88.6 million gallons, almost 30 million more than Texas.
Factors such as the absence of a sales tax on alcohol and proximity to major cities help explain New Hampshire and Delaware's high per-capita alcohol consumption.
