Your Definition
Gin up (or ginned up) means enliven, excite or enthuse. Its probable derivation is from [the 1800's] [British slang] term "ginger up," which referred to the practice of putting ginger up a horse's butt to make him spirited and prance with a high tail, for purposes of show or sale. The other term for this practice is the verb "feague." This is [confirmed] both by the online Phrase Finder from the UK and the OED. The Phrase Finder reports its use in the US prior to 1895.
