Brewski

Answer:

COLDONE

Hint:

Think of what you might order at a bar when you want something refreshing, then combine the words for a chilly temperature and a single unit.

Explanation:

"Brewski" is slang for beer, and "cold one" is another casual term for the same thing. The answer plays on the idea of calling a beer a "cold one" while also treating it as a single word, "COLDONE." It’s a straightforward pun where the clue hints at the phrase without spelling it out directly.
