My personal preferences:
In summer, mojitos. Or any time I want to feel like it's summer. Superfine sugar, mint, lime, rum, and club soda. Yum.
In winter, bourbon and club soda. This is not a beginner's drink. I don't recommend it if you like your mixed drinks to taste fruity.
My recommendations:
Try a Cape Codder (vodka and cran, sometimes served with a lime), a Seabreeze (vodka, cran, grapefruit juice), Bay Breeze (vodka, cran, pineapple juice), and a Cosmopolitan (vodka, cran, triple sec, lime) next time you go out. The Cape Codder is especially good if you're trying to watch your calories. Mixed drinks are full of hidden calories. Watch out.
