Crossword Genius

Drunk in snug (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tight

This clue is a double definition.

'drunk' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'snug' is the second definition.
('tight' can be similar in meaning to 'snug')

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for tight that I've seen before include "Close - drunk" , "Tense; secretive" , "Trim" , "Rigid; drunk" , "Drunk - a near thing!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
