Food sent to Capri (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

apricot

'food' is the definition.
(apricot is a kind of food)

'sent to capri' is the wordplay.
'sent' indicates anagramming the letters (send can mean to excite or stimulate).
'to'+'capri'='tocapri'
'tocapri' anagrammed gives 'APRICOT'.

(Other definitions for apricot that I've seen before include "Small, peach-like fruit" , "Yellowish fruit like a small peach" , "Asian fruit" , "Luscious fruit" , "Orange-yellow fruit in plum family" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
