lemon peel

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

'zest' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'feeble person quiet swimmer added' is the wordplay.
'feeble person' becomes 'lemon' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'quiet' becomes 'p' (music symbol for 'piano', ie soft or quiet).
'swimmer' becomes 'eel' (eel is a type of fish).
'added' says to put letters next to each other.
'lemon'+'p'+'eel'='LEMON PEEL'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lemon peel that I've seen before include "twist" , "Source of zest" .)
