Like some alcohol … or places that prohibit alcohol

DRY

Think of a word that describes both a type of wine that isn’t sweet and a county where you can’t buy liquor on Sundays.

The word "dry" can describe certain types of alcohol, like dry wine, which isn’t sweet. It also refers to places where alcohol is banned, like "dry counties" in the U.S. The clue plays on the double meaning—one about the drink itself, the other about laws restricting it.
