I like the taste of whiskey, scotch, etc... can't handle a lot of it, but I like the taste. That said, a Jack and Coke or scotch and soda would probably be good if you like either of those tastes.
For sweeter things, but lighter on the alcohol, hard lemonades are good, as well as hard iced teas.
A good, fruity drink is a midori sour. It's sweet, but light. If you like melon, you'll like this.
Vodka and cranberry juice (or whatever juice you prefer) is good.
Daquiris and margaritas are good. My favorite is strawberry.
