Drunken dame’s drink? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mead

'drink?' is the definition.
(mead is a kind of drink)

'drunken dame's' is the wordplay.
'drunken' indicates anagramming the letters.
'dame' anagrammed gives 'MEAD'.

(Other definitions for mead that I've seen before include "Old honey-based drink for dame" , "The poetic field" , "Alcohol" , "Honey drink; lea" , "Honeyed drink; a lea" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
