Default Need drinking advice!

Ok so this coming April I turn 21 years young, and like the big loser I am I've waited for this date so I can buy something from the ABC store for the first time without sending someone else in.

As I've never had much time to browse the selection personally I've stuck mainly to bourbon whiskey and vodka over the years. I'm a big fan of Jim Beam and while I don't drink often I do keep a 5th in my desk at all times in case I feel a cold coming on.

So anyway I plan on buying lots of liquor come April 16th...plan on throwing a big house party too. I need to a nice selection of drinks for my company and myself... My company will require hard drinks as the stuff is like water to them.

So I need three things from you guys;

1) A suggestion for an easy mix-drink that I can mix prior to the party. I want to make about 5 gallons of something (I was thinking PJs (everclear + fruit punch)). We drink PJs and Green Monster all the time so I was hoping someone knew a similar drink that I haven't tried before.

2) A suggestion for drinks I can mix at the party to impress the company (and women) .

3) Some suggestions for liquor I can serve straight (shots). I'm planning on getting some whiskey and vodka for this purpose but I'd like to have a better variety.

1) Umm... ooh! VODKA JELLIES! I know, not quite what you wanted to hear, but they're popular in my neck of the woods. Vodka + Jelly + Freezer Trays.

2) I find that things like Quick F**k go down a treat - Midori plus Baileys in a shot glass. Make sure to pour carefully so as to have 2 layers.

The ladies like my Vodka and Cranberry mixers.. or Cosmopolitans if I am feeling especially creative.

Oh.. you just gotta have a Keg. Kegs rock. Beer is your friend.

3) If you can find it, please try '42 Below Vodka'. It's made in NZ, comes in a variety of flavours (try Feijoa, by God it is the best ever, especially mixed with apple juice) and is the best vodka in the world.

4) Three words: Home Brewed Whiskey.

A guy I know makes this stuff, and he has to use a pipette or eyedropper to deliver it to its mixer...coke/juice/whatever. Add 4 drops, drink and count to 6.

If your ever my way look me up. I'll let you sample some of the local stuff. Usually we buy it by the gallon and jar it with fruit (I like peaches).

1) Sangria and kamikaze.

Sangria => Red wine,fruit,orange juice

Kamikaze =>Vodka + lots of lemon juice with lots of ice


Those are the best You won't even notice there is alcohol inside.
