How to make a Splash Potion of Night Vision (8:00/6:00) in Minecraft
This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a Splash Potion of Night Vision (8:00/6:00) with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.
In Minecraft, you can brew a Splash Potion of Night Vision (8:00/6:00) that is extended to last longer than a regular Splash Potion of Night Vision (3:00/2:15). This potion can be thrown at a player or mob to give them the Night Vision effect so they can see in the dark for 8 minutes in Java Edition or 6 minutes in Bedrock Edition (PE, Win10, Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch).
Let's explore how to make this splash potion.
