Almost toy with mixer that's totally spiritual (8)
I believe the answer is:
platonic
'spiritual' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'almost toy with mixer that's totally' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'mixer' could be 'tonic' (I've seen this before) and 'tonic' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for platonic that I've seen before include "Excluding congress" , "Non-physical" , "I can plot (anag)" , "This sort of love is passionless" , "Relating to a particular Greek philosopher" .)
