Incredibly sour lemon mixed with last bit of honey (10)
I believe the answer is:
enormously
'incredibly' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adverbs. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'sour lemon mixed with last bit of honey' is the wordplay.
'mixed with' indicates an anagram.
'last bit of' indicates one should take the final letters.
The last letter of 'honey' is 'y'.
'sour'+'lemon'='sourlemon'
'sourlemon' mixed up with 'y' gives 'ENORMOUSLY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
