Coffee with no doughnut for Georgian, perhaps (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

american

'for georgian perhaps' is the definition.
(georgian is a kind of American)

'coffee with no doughnut' is the wordplay.
'coffee' becomes 'americano' (type of coffee drink).
'with no' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'doughnut' becomes 'o' (letter resembling a doughnut).
'americano' with 'o' taken out is 'AMERICAN'.

(Other definitions for american that I've seen before include "Film starring Kevin Spacey" , "Main race (anag.)" , "From across the pond" , "[YANKEES] member?" , "Member of New World community" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
