A divine drink prepared in a trance (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nectar

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

'a divine drink' is the definition.
(drink of the gods in classical mythology)

'prepared in a trance' is the wordplay.
'trance' anagrams to 'NECTAR'.
But, I am not clear how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nectar that I've seen before include "sweet thing" , "Drink of the gods consumed in trance" , "Ambrosia" , "Divine beverage" , "Sweet fluid produced by flowers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
