Crossword Genius

Believe in drink? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

swallow

I believe this is a double definition.

'believe' is the first definition.
(to swallow something is to accept or believe it)

'drink?' is the second definition.
(swallow a drink)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for swallow that I've seen before include "flier" , "Accept" , "put up with" , "Creature which can go up" , "Long-winged, fork-trailed bird" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
