Triple drink for a dance (3-3-3)
I believe the answer is:
cha-cha-cha
'triple' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'drink for a dance' is the wordplay.
'drink' becomes 'cha' (cha can mean tea).
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a dance' becomes 'chacha' (cha-cha is a kind of dance).
'cha'+'chacha'='CHA-CHA-CHA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cha-cha-cha that I've seen before include "Latin American dance, sounds trebled" , "Latin American dance - 1-2-3 rhythm" , "A Latin American dance, very repetitive" , "Latin-American dance" , "Ballroom dance" .)
