Resentful at fruit in beverage (6,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bitter lemon

'beverage' is the definition.
(bitter lemon is a kind of beverage)

'resentful at fruit' is the wordplay.
'resentful' becomes 'bitter' (synonyms).
'at' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'fruit' becomes 'lemon' (lemon is a kind of fruit).
'bitter'+'lemon'='BITTER LEMON'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bitter lemon that I've seen before include "Soft citrus drink" , "Tart soft drink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
