Cried about drink (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cider

'drink' is the definition.
(I know that cider is a type of drink)

'cried about' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates an anagram.
'cried' anagrammed gives 'CIDER'.

(Other definitions for cider that I've seen before include "Drink made from apple juice" , "Alcoholic drink from fermented apple juice" , "Apple-based beverage" , "Pear drink" , "Alcoholic drink (to be taken with Rosie?)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
