Americans didn’t have to sneak into a speakeasy during Prohibition to get a drink. Many got their booze legally: by getting a prescription from a doctor and then buying their whiskey at a pharmacy. Alcohol had long been used as a medicinal remedy, making it sort of the medical marijuana of its day.
