A drink or cocktail. Stems from the concept of sharing the profits from a good
harvest among the farmers involved, as in a glass of wine from a barrel or a shot of whiskey from a
cask. Commonly used to refer to a drink poured from a larger stash (i.e. a bottle of whiskey or a
batch of martinis).

Carolyn: "I'm not going to have one myself but would
be happy to
get you one."
