Dale/David Project #96--Vendome Cocktail

According to Dale, this was the official cocktail of the Vendome Club in Hollywood "ca 1930" (though that was during Prohibition.) It's one of those all-booze cocktails that requires a gentlemanly stir and is not shaken. Equal parts gin, red Dubonnet, and sweet vermouth, garnished with a lemon twist. I like it, it's like a mellow Manhattan.
