Drink and drugs produced by home brewer

Ross

I believe the answer is:

teapot

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

'home brewer' is the definition.
'teapot' can be an answer for 'brewer' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the 'home' bit.

'drink and drugs' is the wordplay.
'drink' becomes 'tea' (tea is a kind of drink).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'drugs' becomes 'pot' (slang term for mariujana).
'tea'+'pot'='TEAPOT'

'produced by' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for teapot that I've seen before include "Spouted holder" , "Tao pet (anag)" , "Kitchen vessel with handle, lid and spout" , "Home brewing is done here!" , "Hot drink dispenser" .)
