Yank raised bottle, parting with tip (3)
I believe the answer is:
tug
'yank' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tug that I've seen before include "Small boat for towing others" , "draw with some effort" , "Working boat" , "Sudden abrupt pull" , "jerk" .)
