An icebreaker is a type of ship built to go through ice-covered waters. Its purpose is to make the water safer for other ships, or to allow exploration where other types of ships cannot reach.

An icebreaker can refer to many things, but mainly either a ship that is designed to go through pack ice or an alcoholic drink (so named because addition of alcohol to ice makes it melt).
