Drink from rice brewed round delta (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cider

'drink' is the definition.
(cider is a kind of drink)

'rice brewed round delta' is the wordplay.
'brewed' indicates an anagram.
'round' indicates putting letters inside.
'delta' becomes 'd' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'rice' anagrammed gives 'cier'.
'cier' placed around 'd' is 'CIDER'.

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cider that I've seen before include "Alcohol from apples" , "Alcoholic drink (to be taken with Rosie?)" , "Alcoholic drink from fermented apple juice" , "Beverage from apple juice" , "Scrumpy" .)
