Melon and peanut dished up with cola (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cantaloupe

'melon' is the definition.
(cantaloupe is a kind of melon)

'peanut dished up with cola' is the wordplay.
'dished up with' indicates an anagram.
'peanut' with its letters anagrammed with 'cola' can make 'CANTALOUPE'.

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cantaloupe that I've seen before include "musk melon" , "Small to medium-sized melon with yellowish flesh" , "Type of melon" , "Small melon with ribbed skin" , "Musk-melon" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
