Article in French daily that's refreshing (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lemonade

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

'that's refreshing' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'article in french daily' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'a' (the indefinite article in English).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'french daily' becomes 'Le Monde' (French daily newspaper).
'a' placed inside 'lemonde' is 'LEMONADE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lemonade that I've seen before include "This should refresh" , "Flavoured mineral drink" , "something refreshing" , "it refreshes" , "Lead me on to the strange drink" .)
