Cocktail sends dancing into chaos (3,3,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gin and tonic

'cocktail' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'dancing into chaos' is the wordplay.
'chaos' indicates an anagram.
'dancing'+'into'='dancinginto'
'dancinginto' anagrammed gives 'GIN AND TONIC'.

'sends' is the link.

(Another definition for gin and tonic that I've seen is " Common cocktail".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
