Advocaat and Babysham. Maybe a cherry brandy chaser.
I'd forgotten about Babycham
Launched in the United Kingdom in 1953,[3] Babycham was the first alcoholic product to be advertised on British commercial television, the campaign being launched in 1957, with the drink originally marketed as a "genuine champagne perry".[4] It was the first alcoholic drink aimed specifically at women and used the catchphrase "I'd Love a Babycham".

I have just come from Lidl on a drinks expedition. I didn't find any meade, advocate, no actual Baileys. Very few well known named brands, but their shelves were very full. Last week I found a selection of Bailey 'look a likes', this week just one brand left.

No point finding you like something from Lidl, going back for more - because the following week they will be selling something entirely different. What ever, you can always be sure it is top quality offerings, even if you do not recognise the brand.
 
Torres 10 brandy, club Havana 7 year old and stella from choice but red, white or anything with alcohol in if pushed o_O
