Habit of taking a lot of wine with ice-cold starters? (5)
I believe the answer is:
tunic
'habit' is the definition.
(historical garment or tunic)
'a lot of wine with ice-cold starters?' is the wordplay.
'a lot of wine' becomes 'tun' (a large container of wine).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'starters?' says to take the initial letters (I've seen 'starter' mean this).
The first letters of 'ice cold' is 'ic'.
'tun'+'ic'='TUNIC'
'of taking' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for tunic that I've seen before include "School garment" , "Loose sleeveless garment" , "Loose fitting light cloak extending to the hip or lower" , "Simple garment" , "Military uniform" .)
