Mixes Italian ice-cream to smooth music (6)
I believe the answer is:
legato
'smooth music' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'mixes italian ice-cream to' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'to' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for legato that I've seen before include "Smoothly flowing in style" , "Got ale (anag.)" , "(Music) without breaks between notes" , "Smooth, flowing (mus.)" , "Played smoothly" .)
