Flushed, as cheeks (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rosy

'flushed as cheeks' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for rosy that I've seen before include "Blooming - hopeful" , "lady" , "Promising; hopeful" , "Hopeful; blushing" , "Healthy-looking" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the LA Times.
