Deletion of List of U.S. state beverages

Comment: If this was ''List of Official Beverages of sporting leagues/events/something'', I'd be thacking it with the delete stick and hard. Official ''state'' beverages, however, is another kettle of fish. |Like it or not, a "State Beverage" is on the same level of notability as a List of U.S. state birds|state bird or List of U.S. state flowers|state flower; they're not marketing endorsements, they're actually things ''passed by the legislature''. Do the legislatures in question have too much time on their hands? Probably. But it doesn't change the fact that this is, indeed, a notable topic

Comment: 1) it easily passes WP:GNG as one of those sorts of things that is clearly notable; (2) it passes  as something that should be in this format, as opposed to just a category; (3) it is easily |sourceable and |verifiable with a mix of primary, secondary, and tertiary sources, as may be seen |by recent efforts to rescue it through sourcing; and (4) just the sort of thing that our core readership -- high school and middle school students -- would look for here at WP
