What's milky, mixed up in drink? (4,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

malt whisky

'drink?' is the definition.
(malt whisky is a kind of drink)

'what's milky mixed up' is the wordplay.
'mixed up' indicates anagramming the letters.
'whats'+'milky'='whatsmilky'
'whatsmilky' with letters rearranged gives 'MALT WHISKY'.

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for malt whisky that I've seen before include "nightcap" , "Distilled spirit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
