Morphology

drinky = drink (transparent) = drink + y

Formed directly from 'drink' + '-y' with the meaning 'suitable for drinking'; informal but directly derivable.

Etymology

Drinky comes from the verb drink plus the ending -y, which makes a word mean 'like' or 'good for drinking'. So a drinky wine or beer is one that is smooth and easy to enjoy.
