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

'isn't that enough?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'ungodly imbibing last of drink' is the wordplay.
'ungodly' becomes 'sinful' (synonyms).
'imbibing' is an insertion indicator (imbibe can mean to drink or absorb).
'last of' suggests the final letters.
The last letter of 'drink' is 'k'.
'sinful' going around 'k' is 'SKINFUL'.
