Bound to be tight with added alcohol (5)
I believe the answer is:
laced
'added alcohol' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for laced that I've seen before include "Fortified" , "Drinks may be" , "Intertwined" , "with extra spirit" , "Administered a beating" .)
