Drink cures heart that's broken (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chartreuse

'drink' is the definition.
(Chartreuse is an example)

'cures heart that's broken' is the wordplay.
'that's broken' indicates anagramming the letters.
'cures'+'heart'='curesheart'
'curesheart' anagrammed gives 'CHARTREUSE'.

(Other definitions for chartreuse that I've seen before include "Carthusian liqueur" , "green liquid" , "drink" , "The spirit" , "Green-yellow liqueur" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
