    Sweet lime juice

    12 months ago 62

    From a Jain viewpoint:

    • Sweet lime (mosambi) juice counts as phal-aahar (fruit-based food) and is generally acceptable for householders, especially during daylight hours. Avoid after sunset if you observe chauvihār/biyāsan.
    • During fasts, practices vary: some take only boiled water; others allow strained fruit juice during partial fasts. Follow your family/tradition’s niyam.
    • Monastics have far stricter rules; processed juices are typically not taken.

    Ahimsā-friendly way to prepare:

    • Use fresh, seasonal fruit; wash and inspect to avoid harming tiny beings.
    • Cut gently; try not to crush seeds.
    • Strain the juice through a clean, fine cloth; use only filtered/boiled-and-cooled water if diluting.
    • Do not add honey or unfiltered ingredients; avoid ice of uncertain water.
    • Consume the same day, in daylight; do not store overnight or ferment.
