Put an end to drink (6)

I believe the answer is:

scotch

I believe this is a double definition.

'put an end' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'to drink' is the second definition.
(Scotch is an example)

(Other definitions for scotch that I've seen before include "Whisky from Scotland" , "Put an end to - drink" , "Put an end to, say rumour" , "Put an end to - whisky spelt thus?" , "dish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Irish Independent, The Guardian, The Telegraph and The Daily Express.
