For example, tee up following small drink (9)
I believe the answer is:
supporter
'for example tee' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'up following small drink' is the wordplay.
'following' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'drink' becomes 'porter' (porter is a kind of drink).
'up' put after 's' is 'sup'.
'sup'+'porter'='SUPPORTER'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for supporter that I've seen before include "Adherent, defender" , "sports fan?" , "Champion" , "Advocate" , "angel" .)
