Let drunk consume rum and totter (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toddle

'totter' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'let drunk consume rum' is the wordplay.
'drunk' indicates anagramming the letters.
'consume' is an insertion indicator.
'rum' becomes 'odd' (I've seen this before).
'let' is an anagram of 'tle'.
'tle' placed around 'odd' is 'TODDLE'.

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for toddle that I've seen before include "Move like someone starting out on life" , "Aimless stroll" , "Walk like baby" , "Walk unsteadily like a small child" , "Move like an infant?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
