In the morning, not drunk, I will bother to get sherry (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

amontillado

'sherry' is the definition.
(amontillado is a kind of sherry)

'in the morning not drunk i will bother' is the wordplay.
'in the morning' becomes 'am' (AM on a clock).
'drunk' indicates anagramming the letters.
'i will' becomes 'I'll' (abbreviation).
'bother' becomes 'ado' (both can mean fuss or commotion).
'not' with letters rearranged gives 'ont'.
'am'+'ont'+'ill'+'ado'='AMONTILLADO'

'to get' is the link.

(Other definitions for amontillado that I've seen before include "Drink" , "Medium-dry sherry" , "Kind of sherry" , "booze" , "Type of sherry" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
