Is there an easy way to drink Barium Sulfate?
First of all, I have to question why you would want to drink BaSO4. If it's for use as a contrasting agent, then that would make sense, but it is not wise to drink pure barium sulfate, as it is only liquid between 1580 and 1600 degrees celcius. Mix some BaSO4 powder with some form of sweetened drink if you have to drink it. If you are not using it as a contrast agent, then why on earth are you trying to drink a potentially toxic substance?
