Welcome to the GND Recipes Library! Named in honor of the bill that started Prohibition in the United States, the Volstead Act is an intensely tasty, zero-proof concoction. It takes a refreshing, tropical mix of pineapple, lime, and ginger and elevates it with a secret weapon: turmeric. This vibrant spice adds a beautiful orange-gold color and a savory depth that makes an otherwise ordinary drink truly extraordinary.
