Put in charge at the lemonade factory? (7)
I believe the answer is:
aerated
'put in' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'charge at the lemonade factory?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'charge' could be 'rate' (rate is a kind of charge) and 'rate' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for aerated that I've seen before include "(Of liquid) charged with gas" , "pumped up" , "Ventilated" , "at boiling point?" , "Descriptive of soda-water" .)
