# 1669 Through Thick and Thin

Question

Shalom Aleichem Harav

If a protein powder is rice based, does that make the shake mezonos?

Shkoyach

Answer

Shulchan Aruch (208: 6) rules that a thin cereal mixture of light consistency that one drinks as a liquid, the brocho is shehakol. See Vessen Brocho (p. 532), that this applies even when one eats the mixture with a spoon.

Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that the brocho on the liquid shake is shehakol, being similar to spirits and beer created from grain.
