A Cup of Coffee in the Sukkah
Question
Is it obligatory to drink a cup of coffee specifically in the Sukkah?
Answer
Shalom and happy holidays to you!
There is no obligation to drink a cup of coffee specifically in the Sukkah. However, there are those who are stringent and refrain from eating or drinking anything outside the Sukkah. Yet, if the cup of coffee is part of a meal, it seems that it is obligatory to drink it specifically in the Sukkah, just as it is obligatory to eat the rest of the meal in the Sukkah.
