Stirring is a more gentle technique for mixing cocktails and is used to delicately combine the drinks with a perfect amount of dilution from the ice. Many gin and whiskey cocktails are stirred because shaking is said to bruise the spirit (though that is also up for debate).
Distillation is a technique by which two or more substances with different boiling points can be separated from each other. For example, fresh water can be obtained from seawater (water that contains salts) by distillation. When seawater is heated, water turns into a vapor that can be condensed and captured.
