Will a 'tiny bit' be enough for you? It wouldn't for me, which is why sticking to Whisky or Bourbon works better. They don't contain carbs, having a bit more is is not a problem. Having said that, a small amount of Bailey's shouldn't be a problem. The hard part is knowing how much to bolus.

Google keto baileys. Plenty of recipes out there, just be careful of the sweetners. And some seem to make huge amounts. I'm going to try one nearer the day

I will second what has been said here ^^^^ I do love a good whisky though, have recently discovered some nice Japanese ones which require no bolus etc.
