I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'drink' is the definition.

(Other definitions for bevy that I've seen before include "many girls" , "Group of birds or girls" , "Assemblage" , "female company?" , "Group (of larks, ladies etc)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
