Cried out at school for apple drinks (6)
I believe the answer is:
ciders
'apple drinks' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'cried out at school' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'at' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'school' becomes 's' ().
'cried' is an anagram of 'cider'.
'cider'+'s'='CIDERS'
'for' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Crosaire) and The Irish Times.
