Cocktail that’s out of date? (3-9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

old-fashioned

I believe this clue is a triple definition!

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

'that's out' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'of' is a link.

'date?' is the third definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for old-fashioned that I've seen before include "Passe; whisky cocktail" , "Outdated" , "Pass" , "Cocktail made with whiskey, bitters, sugar and fruit" , "Demode" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
