Q. I ate mezonos and also fruits and a drink. If I made “al hamichya” but not “bore nefashot,” can I still take another drink without reciting a “shehakol” bracha?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that even after reciting al hamichyio on eating a kezais amount of mezonos, if he was not “masiach daas” or decided not to consume anymore food or drink requiring the shehakol blessing, he may still continue to do so without reciting another shehakol. This is due to the fact that al hamichyio does not exempt one from reciting bore nefashos, the after-blessing on shehakol foods.
