Tequila source (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agave

'tequila source' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for agave that I've seen before include "source of tequila" , "Spiky succulent" , "Succulent; daughter of Cadmus" , "Plant, source of sisal" , "plant in Mexico" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the LA Times, the Universal and the King Feature Syndicate.
