Andrew associated with British spirit (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

brandy

'spirit' is the definition.
(alcoholic spirit)

'andrew associated with british' is the wordplay.
'andrew' becomes 'andy'.
'associated with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'british' becomes 'br'.
'andy' put after 'br' is 'BRANDY'.

(Other definitions for brandy that I've seen before include "Samuel Johnson's drink fit for heroes" , "Strong liquor" , "Strong spirit distilled from wine" , "Grape wine spirit" , "What a hero must drink, according to Dr Johnson" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
