Dubonnet is a vermouth about 17% alcohol.
--------------------------------
Dubonnet is a French wine based aperitif, but it is also produced in other
parts of the World. It come in two styles:
Dubonnet blanc, aka. Dubonnet blond, is a dry. It is made by adding herbs and
botanicals to a fortified white wine.
Dubonnet rouge is red-wine based and flavored with spices and hints of
quinine. It is also sweeter and richer than Dubonnet blanc.
------------------------
According to this web site you can use either one in this cocktail:
