The Shulchan Aruch 272:9 cites the position of the Rosh and makes no mention of Rabbenu Tam (that bread is invalid for kiddush). Thus, if one has no wine or grape juice for Friday night kiddush, they should make it on bread. The Biur Halacha (s.v. v'im yayin) discusses whether one may rely upon the position of the Rambam that if one simply likes bread better or is more in the mood for it, then one may make kiddush on bread and not wine. He concludes that if one actively dislikes the wine that is available to him, then one may indeed make kiddush on bread lechatchila Friday night. </ref>

##If there's no wine available for [[Shabbat]] lunch, one should use [[chamar medina]] for kiddush.<ref>The Gemara Pesachim 107a presents the opinion of Ravina that it is permissible to use [[chamar medina]] for [[havdalah]], as well as Rav Chisda's opinion that [[chamar medina]] may not be used for kiddush and havdalah. The Rosh Pesachim 10:17 argues that since we follow Ravina for havdalah, we also would allow chamar medina for kiddush. The Rambam Shabbat 29:17, however, holds that for havdalah one could use chamar medina but for kiddush one may not. Shulchan Aruch O.C. 272:9 cites the dispute between the Rosh Pesachim and Rambam and sides with the Rosh. Rama also accepts the ruling of the Rosh. Kaf HaChayim 272:50 and Yalkut Yosef 272:16 write that Shulchan Aruch holds like Rosh. </ref>

###For a discussion of what constitutes chamar medina, see the [[chamar medina]] page.
##If one doesn't even have [[chamar medina]]<ref>As for the definition of chamar medina, Mishna Brurah 272:24 says that even beer is only permitted in a place where it is a common drink. Mishna Brurah 272:25 prohibits the use of milk or oil, and Mishna Brurah 272:30 permits the use of liquor. Rav Avigdor Neventzahl in Biyitzchak Yikare footnote 25 says that according to Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach milk is not allowed even in places where it is commonly used like Switzerland. He also says that juice, tea, or coffee maybe permitted but soda is definitely not because it is just like water. Rav Moshe Feinstein in Iggerot Moshe OC 2:75 defines chamar medina as something you would serve to guests who you want to show respect to. Also see [[Shevet Halevi]] 3:26 and 5:32 where Rav Vosner says even where you have wine, chamar medina can be used because in the times of the gemara, wine was far more widespread. Today however, most people do not drink wine so often so other drinks are not inferior to wine for [[Kiddish|kiddush]].</ref>, one should just say hamotzi and eat the bread.<ref>Shulchan Aruch O.C. 289:2, Mishna Brurah 289:10. The logic behind not using bread for [[kiddish|kiddush]] during the day (but rather using chamar medina) is explained by Mishna Brurah 272:3 (citing the Rosh pesachim 10:17), that if one were to recite the daytime [[kiddish|kiddush]] over bread, it would be the same procedure as if he wasn't saying kiddush at all. Therefore, to make it apparent that we are actually saying [[kiddish|kiddush]], we say a bracha that wouldn't normally be recited, even if that is a [[shehakol]]. </ref>

##If he doesn't even have bread, one may eat without [[Kiddish|kiddush]].<ref>Shulchan Aruch O.C. 289:2. Mishna Brurah 289:10 explains that even though there is a rabbinic prohibition to eat before making kiddush that applies to both the Friday night and shabbat day kiddush, we do not require one to fast if there is nothing available with which to make kiddush, since this would be mevatel the mitvah of oneg shabbat (lit: enjoying shabbat). </ref>

==Beracha Acharona for Kiddush==


#One should not say a bracha acharona after kiddush (made in the context of the meal), even though a reviit of wine was consumed, because saying birkat hamazon at the end of the seuda covers kiddush.

Mishna Brurah 272:37 explains that the cup of kiddush is considered to be included in food that is בא מחמת הסעודה (i.e. part of the meal), and therefore covered by bentching. </ref>

#In Kiddush of Yom Tov if someone said Mikadesh Yisrael and didn’t add Ve’hazmanim he didn’t fulfill his obligation.<ref>The Gemara Pesachim 117b has a dispute between the elders of Pumpedita and Rava in tefillah whether you should say Mikadesh Yisrael or Mikadesh Yisrael Vehazmanim on Yom Tov. In Kiddush everyone agrees that you should recite Mikadesh Yisrael Vehazmanim. Magen Avraham 487:1 writes that if in Kiddush someone only say Mikadesh Yisrael he didn’t fulfill his obligation. Kaf Hachaim 487:17 and Zichron Yonah Avodat Halevim 30:1 agree.</ref>

Mishna Brurah holds that it can be fixed within a toch kdei dibbur. Magen Avraham 487:2 implies that the same is true of kiddush. Zichron Yonah 30:2 writes so explicitly.</ref>
