Potion Cooldown
by nouho
Potion Cooldown puts a cooldown on drinking and throwing potions, with separate timers that a configuration file sets for each potion type.
What it does
Drinkable, splash and lingering potions each get a cooldown that the player can set in a config file, along with a separate cooldown for normal potions that can be thrown. A config option can sync these values from the server to connected clients. The remaining time is shown in the vanilla cooldown bar, so no new interface is added. The mod also adds a few new items and blocks.
Potions from other mods are handled as well, so modded potion types can carry cooldowns too. The server side needs the mod for it to work, and clients see the timers when they run it too. The mod is built for 1.21.1 only, with Fabric and NeoForge files, and the code is released under the MIT License, so it is open source.

Vanilla cooldown bar
The remaining cooldown appears in the standard cooldown bar that the game already uses for items.
Server sync option
A configuration option can sync cooldown values from the server so clients match what the server enforces.
