Soul; life force (6)

I believe the answer is:

spirit

This clue is a double definition.

'soul' is the first definition.

'life force' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for spirit that I've seen before include "Distilled liquor" , "Ghost or soul" , "Eg, rum" , "Gusto" , "Strong distilled alcohol" .)

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