toaster

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

'can do breakfast' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'sample drinking hole' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'hole' could be 'o' (O looks like a hole) and 'o' is found in the answer.
'sample' could be 'taster' (I've seen this before) and 'taster' is found within the remaining letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'that' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for toaster that I've seen before include "wedding present?" , "In the morning, this device used" , "Machine for making brown bread?" , "to get bread browner?" , "one that suggests health" .)
