Drink made Noel tipsy (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lemonade

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

'made noel tipsy' is the wordplay.
'tipsy' indicates anagramming the letters.
'made'+'noel'='madenoel'
'madenoel' with letters rearranged gives 'LEMONADE'.

(Other definitions for lemonade that I've seen before include "Meal done? Have a drink" , "(Usually) fizzy drink" , "Lead me on to the strange drink" , "Flavoured mineral drink" , "Sweet beverage of diluted juice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Guardian.
