Complete Kosher for Pesach 2026 Liquor List • YeahThatsKosher

Pesach is eight days long, and nobody said you have to spend them dry. Whether you’re hosting a Seder, stocking a Yom Tov table, or just trying to get through the Magid with a smile, knowing which bottles are kosher for Pesach — really kosher for Pesach — matters.

The Chicago Rabbinical Council (cRc) publishes one of the most trusted Pesach liquor guides in the kosher world, and their 2026 list is out. We’ve broken it down by category below. Every product on this list has been verified as kosher for Pesach when bearing the appropriate kosher symbol — so check the bottle before you buy.

Tequila

The kosher for Pesach tequila options have gotten a serious upgrade this year. Beyond the familiar Mi Amor and Zarza lineups, El Tequileno has entered the picture with a wide range of STAR-K certified expressions, most of which are kosher for Passover. Patron also makes the list across several expressions via KA Alef. As always, check the symbol on the bottle — not all expressions from the same brand carry the same status.

Vodka

Vodka has the longest list of any category, which makes sense — it’s the most versatile spirit and one of the easiest to produce without chametz. The Zachlawi flavored vodka lineup alone gives you five options, and Stoli Gluten Free continues to make the cut for those who want a recognizable name on the table.

As always, just because something is kosher year-round does not mean it’s kosher for Pesach. Whiskey and most standard beers are not on this list for a reason. Stick to what’s verified and double-check the symbol on the bottle before Yom Tov.
