Java Edition:Invalid Effect Potions
In April Fools' snapshot 23w13a_or_b, it was possible to create potions that contain effects that do not usually have potions. These custom potions are stored as Uncraftable Potions with custom NBT, and can even store effects with infinite durations.
Obtaining
To obtain a potion with an invalid effect, the drink_air
vote must be applied. While this vote is applied, if the player "drinks" an empty glass bottle they will receive the Bottle of Void item. If the player drinks a Bottle of Void, the player will take damage (even in Creative) and if the player has an effect applied to them, a random effect will be removed and the player will receive a potion with that effect, including its potency and duration.
Natural Effects
Natural effects are status effects which can be obtained through other means, these can have different potencies and durations.
- Bad Omen has a potion variant starting in 24w13a (1.20.5 Snapshot) with the
Update 1.21
experiment enabled through the Ominous Bottle, but not as an Uncraftable Potion with custom data.

Additional 23w13a_or_b Votes
The April Fools' version 23w13a_or_b introduced several methods to obtain normally unobtainable items and effects.
- The
perma_effect
vote, when applied, will permanently grant all players an effect between level I (1) and VI (6).
The perma_effect
vote allows all players to receive any effect, including invalid effects, with an amplifier between I (1) and VI (6) for an infinite amount of time. This can be combined with the Bottle of Void item (unique to this version) to turn these effects into potions, these potions can then be updated out of 23w13a_or_b and be used to apply the effect for an infinite amount of time, however attempting to brew these potions into splash potions will cause the potion to convert into an splash uncraftable potion.
