Question. I can squeeze a lemon on Shabbat? Does it matter if the squeeze on the fish or you?
Response. If you squeeze a lemon into an empty glass or a glass that already contains another liquid breaks the Melaci Secher of / dash (squeeze / thrash) because the juice is extracted from its natural container making it drinkable.
Season the food. However, it is possible to squeeze the lemon on a solid food because lemon juice is considered part of the fruit and squeezing it directly on a solid food, which becomes part of the lemon juice never takes the name of Halacha juice, but maintains always to solid food.
This provided that you squeeze the lemon by hand (and not with a special tool) and not directly on the food on the plate containing the food (even if you wish to use later as a condiment) and (i) most of the lemon juice be absorbed or (ii) if not to be absorbed, provided most of the squeezed lemon juice is used as a condiment. Examples are fish, respectively (where the lemon is used) and salad (which is not absorbed). See link to other fruits. The Sephardic
know that this is also the view of the Ben Ish Chai, while Rav O. Yosef shlit'a these conditions (i and ii) are not necessary.
Lemon tea. From the above shows that to prepare a tea with lemon and squeeze the lemon allowed to hand in a spoonful of sugar, a condition that most of the liquid is absorbed. Now you can pay spoon containing sugar and lemon in your tea.

poskim believe that the examination of the final destination of squeezing (tea) and not only the intermediate (sugar), it is preferable to cut a slice of lemon and dip it in you (Keli shelishì or at temperatures below 45 degrees) as immersing it does not make any pressing. Be care not to squeeze the lemon slice with a spoon on the edges of the glass. For
Sephardic Jews, Rav O. Yosef shlit'a suggests instead to squeeze the lemon directly into the hot tea. Since, according to the Bet Yosef squeeze the lemon in your tea is not prohibited by the Torah, the chumrà derabbanan not to squeeze the lemon in your tea could lead to pour water directly on hot lemon breach of the Melaci bishul (cook).
