Accident sees pulpy material put in drink (5-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

smash-up

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'accident' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'pulpy material put in drink' is the wordplay.
'pulpy material put' becomes 'mash' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'drink' becomes 'sup' (to sup is to drink).
'mash' put inside 'sup' is 'SMASH-UP'.

'sees' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for smash-up that I've seen before include "Serious collision" , "Road accident" , "vehicle accident" , "Violent road collision" .)
