gin mill

A tavern, bar or saloon. The term originated in 18th Century England when many drinking establishments made their own gin. The term had a negative connotation at the time. Still in use in English-speaking countries the 21st century

You can find Bobby sitting under the tap in some gin mill.

That's not a night club. It's just a high-priced gin mill.

He tended bar in a little gin mill on the corner of Leonard Street.

Sherman's Marshmallow

A Southerner, especially one from Georgia or South Carolina. A reference the the Civil War "March to the Sea" when Sherman's army burnt down cities and towns along the route of march.

She's a Sherman's Marshmallow ,seeing as she's from Atlanta.

Sherman's marshmallows sure get pissed when they are reminded of the Civil War.

G.I. gin

Cough medicine with alcohol and codeine. In the 1960s and 1970s, soldiers complaining of a cold were issued a small bottle of cough medicine. It contained alcohol an codeine. Many drank it down for the buzz.

Go to the medics and get yourself a bottle of G.I. gin. It's great on a cold day like this.

He is useless once he gets some of that G.I. gin.
