Drink Solved?

Oh, the power of this Web. I believe the other component for the drink is perhaps Dubonnet. I went to their website and found that a Dubonnet Cocktail is 1/3 Gin and 2/3 Dubonnet.

Quote from thier website:

"Originally an un-garnished cocktail from the 1930's, the Dubonnet Cocktail is now often served with a twist of lemon (sometimes an orange peel) but has fallen into obscurity in recent years. The Dubonnet Cocktail is said to be a favorite of Queen Elizabeth II, her mother preferred it served served on the rocks. This cocktail is also known as a Zaza."
