Instagram contribution covering points for spiced drink (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

posset

'spiced drink' is the definition.

'instagram contribution covering points' is the wordplay.
'instagram contribution' becomes 'post' (Instagram is a social network).
'covering' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'points' becomes 'se' (**).
'post' placed around 'se' is 'POSSET'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for posset that I've seen before include "So step on curdled milk once used as a cold remedy" , "Sweet spiced milk curdled with alcohol" , "As relief for cold" , "Curdled milk drink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
