Alcohol I bring in around May? (9)
I believe the answer is:
inebriant
'alcohol' is the definition.
(I know that alcohol can be written as inebriant)
'i bring in around may?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'i' could be 'a' and 'a' is found in the answer.
'in' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for inebriant that I've seen before include "Whisky, for example" , "drunk - on this?" , "Intoxicating" , "Heady" .)
