I believe the answer is:

lemonade

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

'it might be the top part' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'of emblem on a design' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'LEMONADE' can be found hidden inside 'emblem on a design'.

Can you help me to learn more?
