Prepare me a blunt sedative (8)
I believe the answer is:
nembutal
'sedative' is the definition.
(I know that Nembutal is a type of barbiturate)
'prepare me a blunt' is the wordplay.
'prepare' indicates an anagram.
'me'+'a'+'blunt'='meablunt'
'meablunt' anagrammed gives 'NEMBUTAL'.
(Another definition for nembutal that I've seen is " Strong sedative drug".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
