Article in Times on alcohol rage (7)
I believe the answer is:
tantrum
'rage' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'article in times on alcohol' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'an' (indefinite article).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'times' becomes 'tt' (an abbreviation for time written twice).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'alcohol' becomes 'rum' (alcoholic spirit).
'an' placed inside 'tt' is 'tant'.
'tant'+'rum'='TANTRUM'
(Other definitions for tantrum that I've seen before include "Fit of ill-temper" , "Fit of childish temper" , "petulant outburst" , "Childish angry outburst" , "Fit - pet" .)
