'you demand' is the definition.
'insist' can be an answer for 'demand' (to insist on something is to demand it). I'm not certain of the 'you' bit.

'is available in tins perhaps' is the wordplay.
'available in' indicates putting letters inside.
'perhaps' is an anagram indicator.
'tins' with letters rearranged gives 'inst'.
'is' placed into 'inst' is 'INSIST'.

'if' is the link.
