Slow to swallow tea, say, with milk (5)
I believe the answer is:
latte
'with milk' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'slow to swallow tea' is the wordplay.
'slow' becomes 'late' (I've seen this in another clue).
'to swallow' is an insertion indicator.
'tea' becomes 't' (I've seen this in other clues).
'late' going around 't' is 'LATTE'.
'say' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for latte that I've seen before include "Espresso with frothy milk" , "Coffee with a topping of frothed steamed milk" , "coffee production" , "Espresso coffee and milk" , "frothy cup" .)
