Primate dropping ecstasy in drink (5)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
orang
'primate' is the definition.
(orang is a kind of primate)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for orang that I've seen before include "Short tree-dweller" , "Forest-dweller with red hair" , "Primate" , "Large ape" , "- - -utan" .)
