WOW ! ! ! "Ultra-light" Cigarettes - WHERE ? ? ?
In the 80's I actually had worked "Myself" down to "ultra-lights" until the powers that be said that the manufactures could no longer label cigarettes as "Light" or "Ultra-Lights" . . . Matter of fact, I was actually smoking one of the lowest Tar/Nicotine cigarettes available at the time "Barclay 100's Ultra-Light Menthols" and when they were removed from the market back to "Kool 100's Ultra-Light Menthol" - only 2 PAD for a number of years and was cutting back even more every day . . . Since then, I was forced to smoke hidden labeled Kool "Lights" and am back up to 2 1/2 - 3 PAD and am still struggling (So - I blame the government for this) - Hopefully, although the "WTA" I have seems to help a little, I can find "My" ADV soon . . .
Now as for "Your" search for information concerning "Bailey's Irish Cream" . . . First,
FYI: Alcohol in general and Diabetes . . . While it is no longer looked down upon as before - PLEASE BE AWARE that there is actual relation to Alcohol & Diabetes syndrome called "Diabetic Alcoholism" ("My" Grandmother died from this), especially given that most alcohol beverages are made from things that contain Sugars and Complex Carbohydrates . . . SO - With the understanding that the More "You" Know, the Better decissions "You" can make - Here are some links for "You" and anyone else to check out that really want to know more:

NOW - While I have personally chosen to no longer drink alcohol beverages as much as I use to (At one time 10+ double or more alcohol drinks a day) that does not mean I do not drink any alcohol at all - I will occasionally have a cocktail or glass of wine every so often when I chose to (Including Coffee w/Bailey's too
). . .
BTW: Giving up Alcohol and Pepsi (2 - 2 Litter bottles a day) for "Me" was not easy at all and I found it just as difficult to do as I am stopping smoking cigarettes, but I found substitutes that finally worked for "Me" . . . AND - It is why I also know I will become a full-time vapor some day and stop smoking . . . So - the search for a Flavor of "E-Liquid" to become "My" ADV continues . . . Just Sayin' . . .
OH - Another "tid-bit" of information and another positive: I actually drop over 30 lbs when when I decided to stop drinking Alcohol & Pepsi . . .
