Strong drink's a trap (3)
I believe the answer is:
gin
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'strong drink's' is the first definition.
(gin is a kind of strong drink)
'a trap' is the second definition.
(gin trap is a kind of animal trap)
(Other definitions for gin that I've seen before include "It often gets mixed up with this" , "game of cards" , "Machine for separating cotton from its seeds" , "It could be used for drinking" , "Alcohol for the snare" .)
