'drinks chill here' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.

'women imprisoned smuggling energy' is the wordplay.
'women' becomes 'w' (standard abbreviation).
'imprisoned' becomes 'incooler' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'smuggling' indicates putting letters inside (some letters smuggled inside).
'energy' becomes 'e' (physics symbol as in E=mcn).
'incooler' placed around 'e' is 'inecooler'.
'w'+'inecooler'='WINE COOLER'
