As an avid player, I’ve spent countless hours experimenting with different potions and their effects.

Before we dive into the recipe, let’s talk a bit about what a potion of strength does. This potion increases your attack damage, allowing you to deal more damage to your enemies. Whether you’re facing off against a horde of zombies or trying to defeat a powerful boss, having a potion of strength in your inventory can give you a significant advantage.
Gathering the Ingredients
Now, let’s gather the ingredients we’ll need to create our potion of strength:
Nether Wart
: You can find Nether Wart in Nether Fortresses. Be careful, as Nether Fortresses can be quite dangerous. Make sure to come prepared with armor and weapons.Glowstone Dust
: Glowstone Dust can be obtained by mining Glowstone Blocks in the Nether. You’ll need a pickaxe with a silk touch enchantment to collect them.Blaze Powder
: Blaze Powder is dropped by Blazes, which can be found in Nether Fortresses as well. Defeating Blazes can be challenging, so make sure to have a good supply of weapons and armor.Spider Eye
: Spiders occasionally drop Spider Eyes when killed. You can find spiders in the Overworld, usually in dark areas or at night.Fermented Spider Eye
: To create a Fermented Spider Eye, combine a Spider Eye with Brown Mushroom and Sugar in a crafting table.Glass Bottles
: You’ll need empty Glass Bottles to hold the finished potion. These can be crafted using Glass Blocks.Water Bottle
: Fill a Glass Bottle with water by right-clicking on a water source block.
Brewing the Potion
Now that we have all the necessary ingredients, it’s time to brew our potion of strength:
- Place the
Nether Wart
in one of the brewing stands’ three bottom slots. - Wait for the Nether Wart to transform the water bottle into an Awkward Potion.
- Add the
Blaze Powder
to the brewing stand’s top slot to power it. - Wait for the Awkward Potion to transform into a Potion of Strength.
- Finally, add the
Glowstone Dust
to the top slot to enhance the Potion of Strength into a Potion of Strength II. This will increase the potion’s effect duration.
Using the Potion
Now that we have our freshly brewed potion of strength, it’s time to put it to good use. To drink the potion, simply right-click on it in your hotbar or inventory. Once consumed, you’ll notice a significant increase in your attack damage for a limited time.
Remember that brewing potions is a complex process, and it may take some trial and error to get the desired results. Don’t be discouraged if your first attempt doesn’t turn out as expected. Keep experimenting and fine-tuning your brewing skills, and soon you’ll become a master potion brewer.
