This is the base recipe for a love potion, but feel free to use close substitutes and add extra ingredients if required/desired. Makes at least a cup of liquid.

- 3 quarter cups of Rose Petals

- 1 tablespoon of dried Nip flowers

- 4 whole cinnamon sticks

- 4 teaspoons of Sun Sugar

- 4 teaspoons of Bee Honey

- Spring water

~~~

Beat the Cinnamon Sticks in a towel with a rolling pin and put it in a cup. Add a splash of pre-boiled spring water to turn it into a watery mixture, then add the Sun Sugar all at once. Fill a pan with more spring water, add the mixture, and gently warm up the mixture. Let it reduce until it has changed color from purple to red before adding the Rose Petals and the dried Nip flowers, a half at a time of a mixture of both. Reheat what's now already a quite appealing, sugary-sweet mixture, mix in the Honey and let everything cool down to room temperature.

Pour the mixture through a very fine sieve to remove impurities. Your potion is ready to be used. A good amount is needed for the potion to work, so make sure you use enough, but not too much; as too much can cause unwanted obsession and stalking behavior.
