I believe the answer is:

shandy

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

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

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for shandy that I've seen before include "Beer-lemonade mix" , "Beer and lemonade mixture" , "Weakly-alcoholic drink" , "Beer and lemonade mix" , "Drink of ale and lemonade 96)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
