Gin Meaning in English

word

/ˈdʒɪn/
jin
/dʒˈɪn/
jin

释义

A strong clear alcoholic drink with a distinctive flavor from juniper berries and other botanicals. It is often mixed with tonic, juice, or vermouth in cocktails.

用法与细微差别

Usually an uncountable noun when talking about the drink in general: 'Do you drink gin?' In bars, it is often used in set combinations like 'gin and tonic', 'gin martini', and 'sloe gin'. Do not confuse it with the separate word 'gin' meaning a machine, as in 'cotton gin'.
