The drink of the man about the house (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

macon

'the drink' is the definition.
(macon is a kind of drink)

'the man about the house' is the wordplay.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'the house' becomes 'co' (I've seen this in other clues).
'man' going around 'co' is 'MACON'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for macon that I've seen before include "red" , "Dry white Burgundy wine" , "Wandering (knight)" , "Variety of Burgundy" , "French wine district" .)
