My goto drink has always been Capt. Morgans and Coke w/ lime at a bar or w/o at home cause im too lazy to cut them. Its good stuff and reasonably cheap (the 1.75 is $20 something i think and you can usually find it on sale)
As far as tequila goes the Mexicans at work finally convinced me that the reason I didn't like it was because i was drinking Cuervo. I tried Patron and love it. They also recommended Sauza but i think both of those are more pricey than the Cuervo.
As some others have said your basic Jim Beam white lable is great with coke and not gonna break the bank.
Southern Comfort is also good with coke although its a little sweet for me so I only drink it once in a while when I'm in the mood for something different.
In the Gin catagory the only one I've tried that I like is Bombay Sapphire and that stuff I love. Mix it with some tonic and lime and your good to go.
Oh and I agree with Greytone. If your gonna drink whiskey straight go with the splash of water. You'll be amazed how that little bit of water brings out the flavor.
