Penny in the morning raising drink for another female (6)
I believe the answer is:
pamela
'another female' is the definition.
'pamela' can be an answer for 'female' (woman's name). I'm not certain of the 'another' bit.
'penny in the morning raising drink' is the wordplay.
'penny' becomes 'p' (short for pence).
'in the morning' becomes 'am' (AM on a clock).
'raising' says the letters should be written in reverse (in a down clue, letters go up).
'drink' becomes 'ale' (type of beer).
'ale' backwards is 'ela'.
'p'+'am'+'ela'='PAMELA'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pamela that I've seen before include "Woman" , "A maple, strangely, for the name" , "Eponymous heroine in Richardson novel" , "A maple for a girl" , "Richardson heroine; Widmerpool's wife" .)
