'teutonic' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'mixing cream with gin' is the wordplay.
'mixing' is an anagram indicator.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'cream'+'gin'='creamgin'
'creamgin' with letters rearranged gives 'GERMANIC'.

'style of' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for germanic that I've seen before include "For example Dutch" , "Like Dutch" , "Relating to people of northcentral Europe" , "group of languages" , "Of ancient north European peoples" .)
