Dear Rabbi, I have a question regarding the blessing “Shehakol nihyeh bidvaro.”
I tend to drink tea or coffee in many sips rather than all at once. Must I recite a blessing before each occasional sip, or is one blessing sufficient?
Thank you very much.
It is sufficient to recite the blessing once before beginning to drink. This blessing covers all subsequent sips, provided that there was no interruption of intent from drinking. An interruption of intent would include, for example, leaving the room without intending to return immediately. If you did leave the room without intending to return immediately, you must recite the initial blessing again.
PLEASE NOTE*
Attention: You should not learn from one case to another, each case must be analyzed individually. Generally speaking, it's always best to have contact with a Rabbi in person, not just virtual contact. Note that where there is a local Rabbi("Mara Deatra"), one should ask him. The answers are under the responsibility of the rabbi who responded, and not under the responsibility of the website and/or the Head of the Institution.
