Oh, how we drift away from our friends. And the ones back home play remember when

Daisy carefully listened to Professor Noble's instructions and waited to continue her potion making. Within moments, the timer sounded to notify that the five minutes had elapsed.

Daisy looked at her potion which was a nice shade of lavender and added her grated cucumber. After cleaning her stirring rod, Daisy stirred the potion twice in an anti-clockwise direction which resulted in the potion turning royal purple in colour. She then cleaned her stirring rod.

Carefully grabbing her moly flower, Daisy dropped it in the centre of her cauldron before she set her time for three and a half minutes so her potion could simmer. Once the timer went off, Daisy turned off the burner.

She then cleaned her thermometer and placed it in the cauldron and waited for it to register 24°C. Once the right temperature had been reached, Daisy removed the thermometer and magically cleaned it. She then added the 5ml of moondew sap and used her stirring rod to stir the potion in a figure eight motion.

As Daisy let the potion cool, she cleaned any equipment that she had finished using and wrote the potion recipe in her notebook. As her potion began to cool down, the shade was fading to a sort of lilac colour.

Notes:
This potion does not heal eyesight beyond that which you normally have - there's another recently developed potion for that.

Ingredients:
1 cup murtlap essence
5g dried ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba)
5g dried eyebright (Euphrasia officinalis)
50g grated cucumber
1 moly flower
5ml moondew sap

Recipe

1. Bring the murtlap essence to a low simmer, and sprinkle in the ginkgo and eyebright. Stir twice clockwise and leave to simmer for five minutes. Meanwhile, grate the cucumber.
2. Once the potion has turned pale lavender, add the cucumber. Stir twice anti-clockwise. The potion should turn a royal purple.
3. Drop the moly flower in the centre of the cauldron. Simmer for exactly three and a half minutes before turning off the heat.
4. Once the temperature has dropped to 24°C, stir in the moondew sap with a figure of eight motion. Leave to fully cool before using, by which time the purple should have faded to lilac.
