Is scared to shake cocktails (8)
I believe the answer is:
sidecars
'cocktails' is the definition.
(I know this)
'is scared to shake' is the wordplay.
'to shake' is an anagram indicator.
'is'+'scared'='isscared'
'isscared' anagrammed gives 'SIDECARS'.
(Other definitions for sidecars that I've seen before include "They're attached to motorbikes to carry passengers" , "cocktails" .)
I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
