The answer to the clue, Knock back second dram and vegetable is PARSNIP.
Explanation
The answer to the Knock back second dram and vegetable is PARSNIP.
In the phrase "knock back," it suggests the idea of reversing or taking back something. "Second dram" refers to the letter "S" (as "S" is the second letter in the alphabet, and "dram" can imply a small amount, often symbolized by "s" in abbreviations). So, "knock back second dram" reversed gives us "S" -> "S" reversed is still "S".
We take "S" (from "knock back second dram," reversed). Combine it with "PARSNIP," the vegetable clue. Therefore, "S" + "PARSNIP" forms the word "PARSNIP," which is both a type of vegetable and fits the wordplay provided by the riddle. The riddle cleverly uses wordplay and indirect clues to lead to the answer "PARSNIP" through these steps.
