'find refreshment' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'a father goes on ground' is the wordplay.
'father' becomes 'pop' (pop is a kind of father).
'goes on' says to put letters next to each other.
'ground' becomes 'sod' (both can mean a piece of earth).
'a'+'pop'='apop'
'apop' put after 'sod' is 'SODA POP'.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for soda pop that I've seen is " Fizzy drink".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
