Rum? That sounds disgusting. How about Kahlua instead? Either way, I would probably not add more than 1/4 cup, and I woul adjust the amount of water in the recipe to adjust for the 1/4 cup.
Actually, a different approach would be to wait until the brownies are done, poke small holes in them with a toothpick, and then sprinkle the liquor in them and let soak.
Then, add put a dollop of whipped cream on each brownie before serving. yum

Triple Chocolate Fudge Brownies
6 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons dark rum (Meyers or Captain Morgan's)
3 large eggs and 1 yolk
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
In a metal bowl, set over a pan of barely simmering water melt the bittersweet chocolate and the unsweetened chocolate with the butter, stirring until the mixture is smooth, remove the bowl from the heat, and let the mixture cool until it is lukewarm. Stir in the sugar and the vanilla and add the eggs, 1 at a time, stirring well after each addition. Stir in the salt and the flour, stirring until the mixture is just combined, and stir in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into a well-buttered and floured 13 by 9-inch baking pan, smooth the top, and bake the mixture in the middle of a preheated 350 degrees F. oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a tester comes out with crumbs adhering to it. Let the mixture cool completely in the pan on a rack and cut it into 24 bars.
I took out the egg whites of one egg and also removed 2 tsp of vanilla extract to account for the Rum.

Put the rum in after the brownies are cooked, for a 13x 9 inch pan, about 1 ounce of dark rum should do, use a teaspoon to drizzle the rum over your brownies, you should add nuts also, pecans would be great with rum.

I would just skip the water and replace it with rum.
And you can't get drunk off of alcohol that has been heated/baked/boiled etc. The heat makes the alcohol evaporate and all you are left with is the water and flavor. 3 Tbsps aren't gonna cut it - unless - you get Rum extract and just add that to the mix, then 3 tbsp would work
You should probably make an experimental batch before you serve to a crowd, but I think just replacing the water would be fine.

um.... i would say substitute part of the water, and replace it with rum... say... if it calls for 1 cup of water, put 3/4 cup water, and 1/4 cup rum.... not half anf half, i think that would be too srtong, but 25% should be good

Try a tablespoon or two. That's enough to give it flavor without making people drunk eating it. It's also not as likely to affect the consistency of the brownies.
