Etymology

The term 'ginned' primarily derives from 'gin', an alcoholic beverage distilled from grain and flavored with botanicals, particularly juniper. The word 'gin' itself has a rich history, originating from the French word 'geniรจvre' and the Dutch word 'jenever', both meaning juniper. The process of making gin has evolved over centuries, with 'ginned' referring to both the process of making the drink and the resulting state of intoxication one might experience. The usage of 'ginned' as a verb highlights the cultural significance of gin, especially in the context of cocktails and social gatherings. Its rise in popularity during the 17th century, particularly in England, led to various colloquial expressions and phrases surrounding the consumption of gin. Over time, ginned has become a part of informal speech, relating not only to the act of mixing drinks but also to the state of being under the influence of gin.
