'strong to drink quickly' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'fancy something' is the wordplay.
'fancy' becomes 'like' (both can mean to find someone attractive).
'something' becomes 'ashot' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'like'+'ashot'='LIKEASHOT'
