'drink' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'a reason we got drunk with gin' is the wordplay.
'got drunk with' is an anagram indicator.
'a'+'reason'+'we'='areasonwe'
'areasonwe' mixed up with 'gin' makes 'NORWEGIAN SEA'.
