The Bracha to be said when sucking the juice out of fruits:[1]
One who sucks the juice out of a fruit recites the blessing of Shehakol and not Haeitz. This applies to all fruits, including dates, with exception to grapes by which one recites Haeitz upon sucking their juice from the grape. This, however, only applies when sucking the actual juice from the fruit and not the actual flesh or pulp of the fruit. If, however, one also sucks the actual flesh or pulp of the fruit then the blessing of Haeitz is recited by all fruits.
