Fall flavoring

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nutmeg

(Other definitions for nutmeg that I've seen before include "(In soccer) kick the ball between an opponent's legs" , "Fragrant tropical seed ground as spice" , "put the ball through" , "Aromatic spicy kernel" , "Kernel and girl for a spice" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
