فإن عقدهم على الخمر كعقد المسلم على العصير
Translation: Their contract over wine is like a Muslim’s contract over juice.
Quduri compares the legal treatment of a wine contract between dhimmis to a Muslim’s sale of juice (‘asir). The comparison concerns contract recognition, not identical rules of permissibility for the substances themselves.
Thus juice remains the illustrative permissible commodity for a Muslim while the prohibition of Muslim wine sales remains intact.
