Soaked in raw ethanol (3)
I believe the answer is:
wet
'soaked' is the definition.
(I know that soaked can be written as wet)
'in raw ethanol' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'WET' is hidden in the letters of 'raw ethanol'.
(Other definitions for wet that I've seen before include "Rainy; feeble person" , "Saturated with liquid" , "Rainy (weather)" , "Moisture; feeble (colloq.)" , "Soaked with water" .)
