Pockets girl filled with drink (8)
I believe the answer is:
marsupia
'pockets' is the definition.
(marsupium is a kind of pocket)
'girl filled with drink' is the wordplay.
'girl' becomes 'maria' (**).
'filled with' indicates putting letters inside.
'drink' becomes 'sup' (I've seen this before).
'maria' placed around 'sup' is 'MARSUPIA'.
I've seen this clue in The Times.
