Drinks to help the digestion of eats? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

teas

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'drinks' is the definition.
(tea is a kind of drink)

'of eats?' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates an anagram (the answer comes from or 'of' the letters).
'eats' with letters rearranged gives 'TEAS'.

'to help the digestion' acts as a link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for teas that I've seen before include "Hot drinks" , "Afternoon meals" , "Beverage made by steeping leaves in water" , "Beverages from leaves" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
