I still desire canned drinks they produce (12)
I believe the answer is:
distilleries
'drinks they produce' is the definition.
The definition and answer are not the same part of speech.
'i still desire canned' is the wordplay.
'canned' indicates anagramming the letters (canned can mean drunk).
'i'+'still'+'desire'='istilldesire'
'istilldesire' anagrammed gives 'DISTILLERIES'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for distilleries that I've seen is " buildings making booze".)
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
