British-Australian Dame having drink (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beverage

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

'drink' is the definition.
(I know that drink can be written as beverage)

'british-australian dame' is the wordplay.
'british-australian' becomes 'b' (this might be a standard abbreviation which I don't know about).
'dame' becomes 'everage' (I've seen this before).
'b'+'everage'='BEVERAGE'

'having' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for beverage that I've seen before include "Non-alcoholic drink" , "Drink other than water" , "Liquid for drinking" , "Any drink, say a beer" , "such as a Frappuccino" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
