Good inexpensive vodka = Sobieski or Luksusowa Vodka from Poland Smirnoff's and Tito's.
Good inexpensive gin = Beefeater's, Seagrams
Buy one of the above, get some cranberry juice, grapefruit juice (I like the red) and/or a container of orange/pineapple/banana juice. A lemon or lime, if you like. Pour a shot of vodka over ice in a tall glass. Fill with juice, garnish with slice of lime/lemon. Fill another smaller glass with ice and water, garnish it with lime/lemon, too. Enjoy your drinks. Be sure you drink your glass of water before you repeat. When I was a real drinking man, drinking water between real drinks was a lifesaver.
