I believe the answer is:

port

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

This clue could be a double definition.

'drink' is the first definition.
(I know that drink is a is a kind of of port)

'left abroad' is the second definition.
'port' can be an answer for 'left' (left side of a ship - opposite of starboard). I'm unsure of the 'abroad' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for port that I've seen before include "Wine - left - harbour" , "Grimsby, perhaps" , "Saint John, for one, > left" , "Harbour; alcoholic drink" , "Rio, perhaps" .)
