Have little skill in drink making (7)
I believe the answer is:
martini
'drink making' is the definition.
'martini' can be an answer for 'drink' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'making' bit.
'have little skill' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'skill' could be 'art' (both can mean a talent) and 'art' is found within the answer.
'little' could be 'mini' and 'mini' is present in the leftover letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for martini that I've seen before include "Gin or vodka with dry vermouth" , "Sienese painter" , "tipple" , "Cocktail made with gin or vodka and vermouth" , "In glass, one's dry" .)
