redbull + any of the citrus flavored vodkas is pretty good.

if you want something sweet that doesn't have a bad taste, try 1/2 sprite + 1/4 vodka + 1/4 any flavor of schnapps (sp)

yup tried that one pretty nasty shitt. best ones are vannilla, orange, and cranberry. I like the Orange with screwdrivers, and the vanilla is pretty good in coke. the cran I haven't found a good thing to mix it with yet but pretty goof straight
 
Can't go wrong with gin n tonic. Mmmmmmm.

Here's what I'd stock with, you can't go wrong with any of those:
Finlandia vodka (it's a crime to mix with anything more expensive)
Grey Goose or Belvedere (for sipping, shots & cosmopolitans)
Bacardi white and gold (you'll need both to mix different drinks)
Beefeater gin (I actually prefer it over Tanq but go with Bombay Sapphire if you can afford, good for martinis too)
Cazadores tequila (damn good for the price and a hell of a lot better than Cuervo, $30 1L @ Costco)
Hennessy VSOP (mix w/ coke, cognac > whiskey, I hate drinking VSOP straight though)
Hennessy or Remy XO (sip or shots, crazy to mix a $100 bottle)

I admit, I never got into whiskey.

Next you'll need mixers (don't need all, just pick and choose depending on what you like to mix):
Kahlua or coffee liqueur (mmm white russians, or mix w/ tequila & coffee)
Midori or melon liqueur (tokyo tea/green dinosaur, melon ball)
Vermouth (martinis)
Cointreau (margaritas & cosmopolitans)
Triple sec (long islands)
Bailey's (mudslides, blowjobs, and car bombs - need irish whiskey & a good stout for car bombs)
Amaretto (amaretto sours, BJs)
lime juice
lemon juice
orange juice
pineapple juice
cranberry juice
mango juice (mango + tequila is damn good, or mango + midori for the ladies)
coke
sprite
cream or whole milk
tonic
coffee

There, that should get you started. Make sure you keep the vodka and the gin in the freezer and have plenty of ice on hand.

And who's the idiot that makes a bloody mary in a blender? Just buy a damn shaker.

While those redbull cocktails may be trendy, you should know that they kill people all the time.
 
Nuf said.

Actually, the last time I got REALLY drunk was on this stuff. Now I can't even THINK about drinking it. Sad, it used to be my drink'o choice.
