Is THe Barrel ‘O Rum eligible? It’s my fave. Tanks Hurricane!

I think darn near anything can qualify as a rum barrel. I forget which book it was in but I'm pretty sure Berry states that "Rum Barrel" was one of those drinks with such a good name that every Polynesian restaurant had their own version. The only criteria I'd apply are:

  1. It's gotta be bulging at the seams with rum. It's a rum BARREL, not a rum pail.
  2. It's gotta be tasty

The BOR definitely meets both of those requirements.
