Drink ruined ace diet (4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iced tea

'drink' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'ruined ace diet' is the wordplay.
'ruined' indicates an anagram.
'ace'+'diet'='acediet'
'acediet' with letters rearranged gives 'ICED TEA'.

(Other definitions for iced tea that I've seen before include "Cool drink" , "Chilled drink" , "Cold summer drink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
