Bailey’s tea? This is a thing now, is it?

I don’t know the answer to your question but here are some thoughts from r/AskUK:
Is it OK to put Bailey’s Irish Cream in English breakfast tea?

- Depends on if you have an alcohol problem or not. If you do then it's probably just a bit eccentric rather than proper out right mad.

- Nobody gives a fuck, put tomato ketchup in it if it makes you happy.

- I put Bailey's on my pizza but even I think you're weird.

Well, if you can get a Baileys Coffee, why not Baileys Tea?

After duckduckgo-ing it, apparently it is a thing, most seem to be making it with Chai.

You may want to experiment with different teas as I imagine an EB will not be detectable after adding some Baileys to it.

I don’t think tea would have a strong enough taste to mask the Baileys?

You could try a good strongly flavoured tea like lapsang souchong…

What I'd recommend is making a nice cup of tea, your choice of bag/brand and chucking the baileys out the window as its vile stuff. Spat it out when tried it

Why not just dilute with hot water or milk?

I quite like Baileys but can't drink it due to cream/lactose content. Maybe I can try my new high strength lactase tablets on it sometime... I'd drink the baileys and tea separately thobut.
