Fruit sent to Capri (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

apricot

'fruit' is the definition.
(type of fruit)

'sent to capri' is the wordplay.
'sent' indicates anagramming the letters (send can mean to excite or stimulate).
'to'+'capri'='tocapri'
'tocapri' anagrammed gives 'APRICOT'.

(Other definitions for apricot that I've seen before include "Fruit from a tropic" , "Yellowish fruit like a small peach" , "Stoned fruit" , "Asian fruit" , "I part co with the fruit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
