Glistering Melon Slice

Glistering Melon is a non-edible item used for imbuing potions with health restoration effects. It is one of the many potion ingredients that can be used to make mundane potions.

Crafting
Glistering melons can be crafted with eight gold nuggets and a melon at a crafting table. This makes them one of the easiest potion ingredients to get, because just 1 gold ingot will make 9 gold nuggets, and even very small melon farms can produce many melons.

As a brewing ingredient
Glistering melons can be added to water bottles to create mundane potions, which can then be made into potions of weakness. They can also be added to awkward potions to create potions of healing.
