drink recommendations please!

hey guys, i have never had alcohol a day in my life but i would like to try some. im not a very social person and i dont go to parties, so i really dont have connections or exposure to this kind of stuff. what are your guy’s favorite drink brands (from the store i can buy, not from the bar) to recommend me? i enjoy fruity stuff. i was recommended pink whitney, twisted teas, and sunny d seltzers, but im still not sure what is good.

bonus questions:

how long after i drink can i start to drive again? is it just when i feel better? i’m not sure how long it takes for alcohol to get out of your system. i’m sure it depends on how much you drink, but any advice/estimation would be helpful!

how do i avoid hangovers? i think some people have said that eating food before you drink helps, and lots of water afterwards.

i’m sorry if these are stupid questions, i don’t really have anyone else to ask these to 🥲
