Group determined to have a drink together? (6)

I believe the answer is:

teaset

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

'drink together?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'group determined to have a' is the wordplay.
'group' becomes 'te' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'determined' becomes 'set' (similar in meaning).
'to have' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'te'+'set'='teset'
'teset' placed around 'a' is 'TEASET'.

Can you help me to learn more?
