Strong drink sees pros in meltdown (8)
I believe the answer is:
espresso
'strong drink' is the definition.
(type of coffee drink)
'sees pros in meltdown' is the wordplay.
'sees pros' can be anagrammed to 'ESPRESSO'.
But, I am not clear how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for espresso that I've seen before include "Coffee (S, not X)" , "Strong coffee made with steam machine" , "Italian strong coffee traditionally in a little cup" , "Seep Ross into the coffee" , "strong drink" .)
