This is a very broad question since there are many different kinds of mixtures, and many different ways to form mixtures and to separate mixtures. In general, if you add two or more liquids (gin and vermouth) to a single container and stir, they will mix, although there are some which don't mix and instead form layers (oil and water). Separating is usually harder than mixing, because with mixing, entropy is on your side, and with separating, you are fighting entropy. Systems tend to be come more disorderly, and hence mixed. However, many techniques exist. Distillation is a process by which you boil away a substance that has a lower boiling point than some other substance with which it is mixed.
