Mine right now is Jim Beam and Ginger.

Anything sours, basically. Whiskey is the classic, but Amaretto is good (though your masculinity will not be threatened due to a total lack thereof is this becomes your regular drink:-P), and Ginger Brandy Sours is superb.

I've always found long island ice tea to be both delicious and effective. All the white liquors (vodka, rum, gin, tequila, and triple sec) with sours and a splash of coke for color. It will fuck you up without your ever knowing if it's done right. Done wrong, it's firewater.

Margueritas of various types can also be excellent or insect repellant depending on how they're made. I recommend taking the time to find a good one, since a good one is truly a thing of beauty. Stick to the rail, though. No need to pay $8 a shot for good tequila you'll never taste.

Seabreeze: Vodka, Cranberry, Grapefruit.
Bay Breeze: Vodka, Cranberry, and Pineapple
Cape Codder: Vodka and Cranberry with a wedge of lime.
I find these all to be particularly good as a highball. Mix in an old fashion glass, pour into a Highball or pint, and fill with Ginger ale.

Zombie, Suffering Bastard, and half the other drinks on a Polynesian Drink menu: Rum, Rum, Rum (maybe some rum too) and Fruit Juice. Those are distinct kinds of rum, mind you, and each brings a different quality of sweetness to the drink. Potentially lethal, frequently mixed to go down easier than a KKG on Grain Punch Night, but with all the stunning power of a crowbar to the forehead.

I forget what it's called, and it sounds pretty nasty, but Tequila, Tia Maria, and Pineapple is a wonderful drink.

Then there are the foo-foo drinks, the ones wot come with a paper umbrella and require a blender to make: Pina Colada, and the various Daquiris.

Couldn't tell you what's in a Singapore sling besides booze and fruit juice, but they can be delicious.

Pernod and Cider is wonderful, but probably not right up your alley.

If you can find it, treat yourself to a Framboise, Cassis, Peche, or Kreik lambic. It is a beer, but it is nothing like anything you've every even considered before. Very much like fruit soda.

Also, at the right time of day in the right frame of mind, a bloody mary can be a life changing event (Tomato juice or V8 or Mix, Black Pepper, Celery salt, horseradish, worcestershire, and vodka. Stir with a celery stalk. The perfect accompaniment to a cheese ommlete or a hangover.)

Recognizing that bitter, solventy, smokey, and savory flavors are Acquired Tastes with respect to beverages, I recommend that you try to acquire them. Not to put hair on your equipment, but to open up a whole different realm of exploration. A person can spend a lifetime just trying different types of whiskys or brandies or idiosyncratic 700 year old recipe European liquors. And then there are over 27,000 different styles of beer. You've probably tried a half dozen if you were particularly adventurous. There's a lot more to beer than Budweiser and Guinness. Young primates like their fruit, but older primates learn to eat everything.
