I forgot to say... personally I stick to beer and the brown liquors... scotch, rye, bourbon...
Wine/Port/Sherry/Champagne are also very nice and classy drinks (if you develop a pallate) but I highly recommend not getting drunk off them. Bad Hangovers
Since Blended Scotch is typically junk, I've found when faced with it, to mix it with either cola or root beer... my friends thought I was nuts until they tried it and loved it. (and finished off the bottle of Johnny Walker Red I got as a gift, thank god).
A good training drink is most things mixed with vodka, as it tends to be easily overpowered by its mix. Vodka Slimes, Vodka and Sprite, Smirnoff Ice and Screwdrivers would be good starters assuming you want to avoid coolers.
