What a hole in a lid is for (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

straw

(Other definitions for straw that I've seen before include "Tube for suckers" , "Dry stalk of grain" , "Dried corn stalks" , "Pale-yellow - through which one can drink" , "It's clutched at in desperation" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
