Platter containing beverage (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

latte

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'beverage' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'platter containing' is the wordplay.
'containing' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (I've seen 'contains' mean this).
'LATTE' is hidden in the letters of 'platter'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for latte that I've seen before include "hot drink" , "Kind of espresso coffee" , "Type of coffee" , "Coffee with a topping of frothed steamed milk" , "Italian word for milk" .)
