Replenish sleep with second bourbon, emptying cask (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

restock

'replenish' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'sleep with second bourbon emptying cask' is the wordplay.
'sleep' becomes 'rest' (synonyms).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'second bourbon' becomes 'o' (end letter of 'bourbon').
'emptying' means to remove the middle letters.
'cask' with its middle taken out is 'ck'.
'rest'+'o'+'ck'='RESTOCK'

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
