Crystalline carbohydrate (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sugar

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

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sugar that I've seen before include "Mild oath (granulated?)" , "Make more palatable" , "rotter!" , "Argus (anag.)" , "Basic sweetener" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
