Golden Potions
by pajic
Golden Potions lets players brew potions from golden food items such as golden apples and golden carrots, so those items work as ingredients instead of food.
What it does
Golden food items become brewing ingredients. A golden apple can be brewed into an Absorption potion, an enchanted golden apple into the Elixir of Life, a unique potion whose effects come from the enchanted apple. Golden apples and golden carrots are made inedible, so they can no longer be eaten and their only use is in brewing.
The mod also adds new potions in splash, lingering and tipped arrow variants, crafted the same way as other potions. Absorption has a long and a strong variant, and the Elixir of Life has its own entries. Creative mode tabs change to match the current mod settings, and each golden food item can be switched off separately in the mod configuration.
Installation needs Fabric API, Fzzy Config and mixson. Installation covers the server and each player's game. It is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric and NeoForge across 10 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3.

How it compares
Enchant Golden Apple is client and server, works on Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.11 – 26.3 and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Enchanted Golden Carrots is server required with client optional, covers Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.21.5 – 1.21.11, and is also not open source. Extra Potions is client and server under the MIT License but targets 26.2 only and only Fabric.
