Doctor to consume fluid and toast (5,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

drink to

'toast' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'doctor to consume fluid' is the wordplay.
'doctor' becomes 'dr' (synonyms).
'consume' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'fluid' becomes 'ink' (ink is a kind of fluid).
'dr'+'to'='drto'
'drto' going around 'ink' is 'DRINK TO'.

'and' acts as a link.

(Another definition for drink to that I've seen is " Toast".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
