Raise glasses to Brown? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toast

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'raise glasses' is the first definition.
(as in making a toast with drinks)

'brown?' is the second definition.
(to brown something is to toast it)

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for toast that I've seen before include "Brown under a grill" , "It may be eaten (or drunk!)" , "Food (that one can drink!)" , "Tribute (plus a clinking of glasses?)" , "Perhaps all the best" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
