This potion causes something to get bigger. The antidote was a Deflating Draught.
 

4 cups water

17 & 1/4 puffer-fish eyes

4 tablespoons ground belladonna

2 tablespoons horned slugs, chopped up

1/2 teaspoon of ginger, for taste

Please note:  You must wear dragon hide gloves when making this potion.  Handle with care!  Please make sure all your ingriedents are measured and chopped up before starting this potion.

Pour 3 cups water into your cauldron and light a fire under the cauldron.  Let the water boil to a rolling boil which means lots of bubbles.  Once you have a good boil going, drop in 14 puffer-fish eyes and stir 16 times counterclockwise.  Put the other 3 and a 1/4 puffer-fish eyes in and stir 4 times clockwise.  You will notice that the potion is a muddy brown with hints of blue. Let boil for 42 seconds.   Sprinkle in the 4 tablespoons of ground belladonna and stir once clockwise. At this point the potion should become a deep blue.  If you smell peaches then you know the potion is successful.  Anything else means you have missed a step and the potion has the ability to become poisonous.  Drop 2 tablespoons of chopped horned slugs and stir 2 times clockwise, 2 times counterclockwise.  Lower the heat on your potion and allow to simmer for 4 minutes.  Pour in the last cup of water and stir four times clockwise.  Add 1/2 teaspoon of of ginger and stir twice clockwise and allow the potion for 8 minutes.  At this point the potion should be a sky blue.  Allow the potion to cool before putting it in a vial.
