Crossword Genius

Take that drunkard to this location (2,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

so there

'take that' is the definition.
(both phrases are said to show defiance)

'drunkard to this location' is the wordplay.
'drunkard' becomes 'sot' (synonyms).
'to this location' becomes 'here'.
'sot'+'here'='SO THERE'

(Other definitions for so there that I've seen before include "Defiant remark" , "What are you going to do about that" , "Expression of triumph, derision, etc" , "message of defiance" , "That will teach you!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
