Tea without anything added for cleric (8)
I believe the answer is:
chaplain
'cleric' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'tea without anything added' is the wordplay.
'tea' becomes 'cha' (cha is a type of tea).
'without anything added' becomes 'plain'.
'cha'+'plain'='CHAPLAIN'
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for chaplain that I've seen before include "Member of the clergy attached to an institution" , "Clergyman attached to an institution, such as the army" , "man of God" , "Armed services clergyman" , "Christian clergyman attached to an institution, military body etc" .)
