How To Make Night Vision Potion In Minecraft: A Step‑by‑Step Guide
Night vision is one of the most useful potion effects in Minecraft. Whether you’re exploring the Nether, hunting mobs at dusk, or simply want to see the world in a whole new light, a night vision potion will give you that advantage. This tutorial shows you exactly how to brew one, from gathering the right ingredients to creating splash versions for the whole squad.
What You Need
Before you start brewing, gather the following items. All of them can be found in the Overworld, and most are available in the Adventure or Survival modes.
- Water Bottle – 3
- Nether Wart – 1
- Glistering Melon Slice – 1
- Redstone Dust – 1 (for extended duration)
- Gunpowder – 1 (for splash potions)
- Glass Bottle – 3 (to replace used bottles)
- Optional: Brewing Stand, Blaze Powder (fuel), and a cauldron
Brewing the Base Potion
1. Set up your brewing station. Place a Brewing Stand on a flat surface. Fill the cauldron with water, then pour three water bottles into the stand.
2. Add Nether Wart. This converts the water bottles into Awkward Potions, the base for all custom potions.
3. Verify the result. You should see a dark, slightly purple liquid in the bottles. This is your starting point for any potion,
