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 judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'my gin' is the wordplay.
'my gin' can be anagrammed to 'MINGY'.
But, I'm not clear how the anagram 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".)
