Take in Indian spices and wine (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

marsala

'wine' is the definition.
(Marsala is an example)

'take in indian spices' is the wordplay.
'take' becomes 'r' (abbreviation for recipe, Latin for 'take').
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'indian spices' becomes 'masala' (spice mixture in Indian cooking).
'r' placed into 'masala' is 'MARSALA'.

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for marsala that I've seen before include "Alcoholic drink" , "Sicilian dessert wine" , "Sweet Sicilian wine" , "Wine - as alarm (anag)" , "Sweet dessert wine" .)
