Bailey's Irish Cream

I don't drink very often, but yesterday was our wedding anniversary and I indulged in 2 Irish Coffees. Who knew that Bailey's was made with fermented grains--I sure didn't. I was rudely awakened at 4 a.m. this morning with nausea and stomach cramps. I've not been able to hold my head up all day and after emptying my system this morning, I feel like a wet noodle and I'm starving, but I'm afraid to eat too much. I've tried some homemade chicken broth and some Crunchmaster Multiseeded crackers, but I still feel yucky. I took Tums this morning and just a few minutes ago and I'm trying to drink some tea. I don't know what else to eat that would ease the discomfort.

    But... but I love Bailey's!

    I wonder if a reasonable substitute could be created on our own. I have no idea what's in it. Um. Cream, probably. And alcohol of some sort.

    That's all I've got.

    Baileys contains whiskey which has gluten in it unfortunately. Tia Maria is made from Rum and should be safe.

    Safe drinks include Cider, Rum, Cognac , Brandy and wine. Gluten can be found in Beer, alcopops, lager and vodka ( although traditionally made from potatoes it is often made from grain)
