A wet part transformed into readily available liquid (3,5)

I believe the answer is:

tap water

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

'readily available liquid' is the definition.
'tap water' can be an answer for 'liquid' (tap water is a kind of liquid). I am not sure about the 'readily available' bit.

'a wet part transformed' is the wordplay.
'transformed' is an anagram indicator.
'a'+'wet'+'part'='awetpart'
'awetpart' with letters rearranged gives 'TAP-WATER'.

'into' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tap water that I've seen before include "Ordinary drink" , "Vital liquid from a sink unit" , "cheap drink" , "Domestic drink" , "still running?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
