The drinks at Bodega and The Rest
How the venue describes itself: “Hip tavern and subterranean speakeasy for creative eats & cocktails in atmospheric digs with a hunting-lodge vibe.” (from its own website, retrieved 9 October 2026)
The current drinks list is published on the venue’s own site — see the menu.
Beyond what the venue publishes we have not verified a list, so what follows is the period rather than the bar: Adonis, Bamboo, and Sherry Cobbler are all drinks of this era, and each links to its origin and its build.

Prohibition in Utah
Utah did not wait for the federal government. Statewide prohibition took effect here in 1917, three years before the Eighteenth Amendment came into force nationally on 17 January 1920. By the time the Volstead Act was being enforced across the country, Utah already had an established illegal trade and the habits that went with it.
