Q. Kavod Harav, I made a bracha on chocolate and had in front of me prune juice. However, I mistakenly thought the prune juice is grape juice until I picked it up to make a bracha. Does it require a bracha even though it was in front of me since it is as if I had intent not to include it since I was mistaken about its identity.
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that if you had in mind to eat more of the food that requires a shehakol brocho, you don’t have to make a brocho on it, since after the fact the shehakol brocho also exempts all liquors you wanted to consume or foods to eat including wine.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by, Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller, Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu and Horav Kalman Ochs Shlit'a
