Recovering from mixed gin espressos (12)

I believe the answer is:

repossessing

'recovering' is the definition.
(recover can mean to retrieve or repossess)

'mixed gin espressos' is the wordplay.
'mixed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'gin'+'espressos'='ginespressos'
'ginespressos' is an anagram of 'REPOSSESSING'.

'from' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
