If you're new to drinking I would suggest either the mimosa or mojito. Mimosa is simply champagne with orange juice and is considered a breakfast drink. Although you can drink it whenever you want, I prefer at parties or such. Mojitos are absolutely delish! It's made with rum so it won't have the bite that some other drinks have, a good recipe to try can be found at drinknation.com. I've actually used this recipe and it turned out pretty well. For my own taste I switched up some things but to each his (or her) own. As for martinis, I am a firm believer in having an olive as garnish but for people who don't like olives it tastes just as good without. Good luck with your introduction to drinking!

They're 3 completely different from each other drinks. First one, as it was mentioned earlier, is a mix of champagne and OJ. The second one, Mojito, is a Mexican drink consisted of rum, mint leaves, lots of sugar, lime juice and some Sprite. It's refreshing and sweet, many people especially girls love it. The term "Martini" at first has been limited to the classical Martini (gin, dry vermouth & olive), had couple of variations such as Rob Roy and Gibson. They're very strong drinks consisted of pure vodka, gin, scotch or whatever they're made of (no soda, juice etc.) Nowadays you can find all kinds of mixed drinks served in a martini glass and called a Martini. The difference between them and drinks served in a regular glass is that Martinis are not on ice and often look more attractive.
All three of them are "girly" drinks. Enjoy!

If I am at Brunch, I'll take a Mimosa, 1/2 champagne 1/2 Orange juice. Dinner, I'll go for a Cosmopolitan Martini, 1 shot Vodka, 1/2 shot of Cosmo Mix and a splash of 7-Up, garnish with a piece of lemon zest!

If you're new to drinking, you're probably not going to much like a "real" martini- that is, gin or vodka and a splash of vermouth. You'd probably like some of the pseudo-martinis that have becom popular in the past few years, like an appletini (vodka, either plain or apple flavored and an apple-flavored liquor, like apple pucker) or a chocolate martini (my recipe is Stoli Vanil vodka, Godiva Chocolate liqueur, and creme de cacao)
A mojito may or may not be to your taste- the traditional version is Cachaca (or rum), lime wedges, mint leaves and sugar, muddled together and then topped with soda water. You can also add other fruits or juices to jazz it up alittle- mango and pineapple are popular, as well as tangerine. A little stronger, related, drink is the caipirinha, cachaca, limes and sugar.
Mimosas are probably best reserved for brunch or hot summer afternoons- champagne and orange juice, preferably fresh.
Bottoms up!

They are all completely different flavors, i think you need a little more experience on your drinks.
a classic martini is probably going to be a little strong for a bagginer, a mojito would be great but make sure it's done well otherwise you wont like it and a mimosa ... save it for sunday and go toone of those places that have all you can drink mimosa

All three: Mimosa for breakfast, mojito for lunch, martini for dinner.
Of course, I mean "with" not "for".... please drink responsibly.
And mojitos are made with rum. Cachaca is the makings of a caipirinha.
