Crossword Genius

Not generous with my gin (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mingy

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'not generous' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'my gin' is the wordplay.
'my gin' anagrams to 'MINGY'.
However, I'm not sure how this is indicated.

'with' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for mingy that I've seen is " Tight-fisted".)
