Prohibition specials throughout South Florida

The lawmakers who put the 18th Amendment into effect in 1920 could never have guessed that 100 years later in 2020, we’d be commemorating Prohibition with inventive cocktail recipes and restaurant specials.

Lucky for us, there plenty of spots to celebrate in South Florida
