  # Construct a GtkOptionMenu 'optionmenu'
  $optionmenu = new Gtk::OptionMenu();              
  $frame->add($optionmenu );

  $menu = new Gtk::Menu;

  $item0 = new Gtk::MenuItem('Red' );
  $item0->show;
  $item0->activate;               

  $item1 = new Gtk::MenuItem('Green' );
  $item1->show;

  $item2 = new Gtk::MenuItem('Blue' );
  $item2->show;

  $menu->append($item0 );
  $menu->append($item1 );
  $menu->append($item2 );

  $optionmenu->set_menu($menu );
  $optionmenu->set_history( 0 );
  $optionmenu->show;

I don't know if this is the best way but it works - excuse any edit 
errors.
