**SMI** Symbols of Mistaken Identity**
- **SMI-1** Wikipedia mistakenly lists Wine as the Official State Beverage of California. Although it is an important agricultural product, the Legislature has not designated wine as an official state symbol at this time. (03-29-11) See: The California State Library: History and Culture, State Symbols
- **SMI-2** Wikipedia erroneously lists water as the Official State Drink of Indiana, based on an incorrect blog article by Biddle, RiShawn (March 19, 2007), which has since then been removed. See: Indiana Historical Bureau: Emblems & Symbols
- **SMI-3** Wikipedia incorrectly lists Moxie as the State Drink of Maine, apparently based on a joke that was made on an NPR broadcast. (03-29-11) See: Maine House Document-May 23, 2006.
- **SMI-4** Although the Senate passed the Bill to make Apple Cider the Official Beverage of New Hampshire, as far as we can tell, the governor has not yet signed it into law. (03-29-11) See: New Hampshire Almanac
