1. 1酒氣的、一臉酒意的;或酒喝很多的(場合)

    Boozy is an informal adjective. One common use is about a person, a face, a laugh, or someone's breath: it shows they have drunk too much — the smell, the redness, the loose talk. The other common use is about an event: a boozy lunch or a boozy night is one where people drink a lot, on purpose. It is not a medical word and not a kind way to talk about someone with a serious drink problem; it is the everyday, slightly word. A boozy person in this sense looks or feels of drink; drunk is the plainer word for the state itself. Though actually, people stretch it: a 'boozy culture' at work just means drinking is normal there, not that everyone is swaying.

組成booze + the adjective ending -y, so 'full of drink' or 'of drink'.
