single cream

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'warmer white liquid' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'gas around' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'gas' could be 'n' (chemical symbol for nitrogen) and 'n' is present in the answer.
'around' could be 're' (regarding) and 're' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for single cream that I've seen before include "emerges from the dairy" , "Dairy product; cleans grime (anagram)" , "food" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
