Etonian pal out of sorts with ice cream in Italy (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

neapolitan

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

'sorts with ice cream in italy' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'etonian pal out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'etonian'+'pal'='etonianpal'
'etonianpal' is an anagram of 'NEAPOLITAN'.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for neapolitan that I've seen before include "21 [ITALIAN]" , "Italian native" , "One coming from Campania" , "Italian citizen" , "Three-coloured ice cream" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
