How a drink ruined production (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

handiwork

'production' is the definition.
(handiwork is a kind of production)

'how a drink ruined' is the wordplay.
'ruined' indicates anagramming the letters.
'how'+'a'+'drink'='howadrink'
'howadrink' with letters rearranged gives 'HANDIWORK'.

(Other definitions for handiwork that I've seen before include "Manual creation" , "one's doing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
