Not Kosher for Passover
**Not kosher for Passover.** L'chaim (לְחַיִּים, "to life") is a Hebrew toast typically said when drinking wine or liquor. While the words themselves are not chametz (leavened grains forbidden on Passover), they are recited over alcoholic beverages. Wine must be certified kosher for Passover (often mevushal or supervised to avoid non-kosher issues), and other liquors may contain chametz-derived alcohol or additives. Plain recitation without a drink isn't an issue, but the common practice makes it non-kosher unless using Passover-approved drinks. Consult a rabbi for specific observance.
