Gargling is something you do with mouthwash. It is part of the process of rinsing out your mouth. Gargling specifically is the rinsing of the back portion of the mouth, which you do while exhaling to prevent the mouthwash from entering your wind pipe, which produces the characteristic gargling sound.
