Give a fruit cocktail (metaphorical) (10)
I believe the answer is:
figurative
'metaphorical' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'give a fruit cocktail' is the wordplay.
'cocktail' indicates anagramming the letters.
'give'+'a'+'fruit'='giveafruit'
'giveafruit' with letters rearranged gives 'FIGURATIVE'.
(Other definitions for figurative that I've seen before include "Metaphorical" , "Symbolic" .)
