Ask intently to brew coffee (6,5)
I believe the answer is:
skinny latte
'coffee' is the definition.
(latte is a type of coffee)
'ask intently to brew' is the wordplay.
'to brew' is an anagram indicator.
'ask'+'intently'='askintently'
'askintently' is an anagram of 'SKINNY LATTE'.
(Other definitions for skinny latte that I've seen before include "Milky preparation" , "Healthier drink" , "Low-calorie white coffee - sent any kilt (anag)" .)
