Answer:
There's nothing inappropriate about Bailey's or Frangelico as after dinner drinks; that's precisely when they're best served.

Other options in that same vein -- which is to say, alcoholic replacements for dessert -- include:

**Dessert wines**
Icewine (eiswein, if you're in the German aisle) -- the Canadians do make some excellent ones
Beerenauslese
Muscat
Port
Madeira
Sherry
Sauternes
Tokaji

**Sweet liqueurs**
Amarula
Amaretto
Chambord
Kahlua
Godiva, etc.

At the other end of the spectrum are the digestifs:
Calvados
Cognac
Armagnac
Whisky (Scotch, bourbon, etc.)
What about a nice sweet dessert wine?
Try a limoncello. It's lemon vodka that's sweetened. You can make it yourself. I got it off the show Everyday Italian from the food network.
maybe a good port, served with Stilton and pears. Just my opinion, of course.
Peppermint Schnapps:)
The ice wines made from frozen grapes are perfect as after dinner dessert wines. There is a wide Canadian selection that have won top honours around the world.
Dessert wines are best. Pinot Grigio is my favorite. Santa Margarita is nice Pinot Grigio at a good price point.
I think nearly anything is better than Bailey's, but that's just me.

You could try grappa or eau-de-vie. These are respectively the Italian and the French versions of more or less the same thing, a clear distilled spirit made from fruit skins and pits (usually grape). You serve it in shot glasses. It's strong stuff (around 80 proof) but I think really delicious. They go very well with coffee.

Chambord- http://www.chambordonline.com/mainflash....
For your guests who are not driving that evening, brandy or Cognac are good choices.
Also, Drambuie is lovely.
Icewine, port or warm brandy.
Chilled Champagne w/ a little Raspbery Liquer, Chambord, or a sweet Riesling. Gran Marnier & Cognac warmed in a double boiler & coffee, or just Gran Marnier by itself w/ a lemon twist, or Cognac by itself, Remy Martin, Hennessey, Tuaca is also a good liquer, these sweet liquers are good served w/ coffee, Amaretto di Saronno is another one, those are the ones that come to mind I'm sure they're more, but those are the most popular.
Cognac or Brandy

Bourbon, cognac, sherry, brandy, port. Check out the sites below to help you out with different ideas.
