Cocktail carrier (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sidecar

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

This could be a double definition.

'cocktail' is the first definition.
(sidecar is a kind of cocktail)

'carrier' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sidecar that I've seen before include "Alcoholic drink" , "Where a passenger may go" , "Motorcycle accessory -- cocktail" , "Attachment on motorcycle to carry passenger" , "Appendage to motor cycle" .)
