If health potions were a soft-drink, what'd they taste like?
And assuming you have a setting where you could buy them from a vending machine, what other drinks would be available and what would they taste like?

Horrible, like medicine or flavoured serum

I mean Coca-Cola was originally medicine before it was marketed as a soft-drink. So it's not outlandish to think that someone in a setting could get it to taste good.
>Coca-Cola
>tasting good
>uncontroversial statement
>contrarian sentiment
coke has always been shit
only reason it got popular was because the literal cocaine in it, afterwards it's just indoctrination
just drink some fricking water tubby
>popular things aren't actually popular it's only stupid people who have been tricked into thinking it's popular!
>God I'm such an independent thinker.
Why are highland Scots different from lowland Scots?
>Why are highland Scots different from lowland Scots?
They're swarthy in spirit.
>Why are highland Scots different from lowland Scots?
Lowland scots are english in every way, highlanders lived in a different envirnment, which was mostly about clans fighting skirmishes over sheep herds, while lowlanders did usual monarchy midieval shit with castles and mud peasants
Wake alone in the hills
With the wind in your face
It feels good to be proud
And be free and a race that is part of a clan
To live on highlands
With the air that you breathe
So pure and so clean
You know that your ancestors made history when Iron Maiden writes a song about them
JUST DRINK THE FRICKING WATER, YOU SALAD DODGER
It seems to be the only Coke-style soft drink that makes for proper Cuba Libres.
Whites don't drink cuba libres.
Born swarthy.
True but that only happen after it became a soda and not a medicine
The best I can do it's find a sweet spot where it's somewhat healthy for your body but tastes weird but not enough to be unpleasant like unsweeted tea or old coffee
I mean given it's fantasy, I could see an explanation that someone figured out the formula for a basic b***h health potion, and then figured out how to make it taste like a marketable soft-drink. No reason the two need be exclusive.
came to post the nazi zombies perks, literally this concept.
Juggernog is a health potion and also one of the few that actually tastes good
Health Potions taste like red gatorade. Mana potions taste like blue gatorade.
>If health potions were a soft-drink, what'd they taste like?
unimaginably bitter, a nightmare to drink
salty coins and milk
Healing potions are like 1 ounce in 5e, and they'd taste like super concentrated lipton ice tea mixed with iron.
>But the big potion icons?
Representative of importance and to make banana brain think bigger is better, you're drinking like half a shot of hyper concentrated regen liquid, its gonna taste hyper concentrated.
I mean Coke basically is sugar with a dash of herbal infusion syrup.
the vending machines get broken into all the time by.....murder hobos.. the most popular drink is the Red Potion™ it tastes like a strawberry cheez-it. the second most popular is the Blue Drink™ it tastes like water, but everyone seems to think it tastes worse than water, simply because it's blue I guess. a third option is the Green™ the peculiar thing about this one isn't that it's green, or what it tastes like, it's that somehow someone copyrighted the color green. it's the most expensive one, you get the least amount of it, and it just tastes like a red bull. the machine no longer stocks Purp™ because no one bought it. though a lot did get stolen for a time.. basically this machine is going the way of the red box, and they will likely be gone in a year.

My mom likes Fresca a lot and I only ever have it when I'm at her house. I hope I get to see her this year.
I hope so too.
What flavors of cough syrup/throat lozenges do we have IRL? Think about flouride rinses and toothpastes too.
Think about how it's fricking fantasy, and you can do literally anything you want.
Doing even the tiniest amount of research and basic thinking neuters the need for this thread.
Fricking jackass.
This is basically Fallout nuka cola is a Heath potion.
So cola drinks
cough syrup.

>anisette
>absinthe
Oh this is perfect, my setting literally has this concept, in the starting city these flavors are widely available so long as you got the money or don't mind calling down a nasty police squad with anti-magic weaponry:
>Cola Medicae
The flagship brand with its signature cola taste that put Nutricorp on the map. When imbibed, you heal damage equal to half your healing rate, and the ergonomic can design allows it to be drank as a Triggered Action.
>Medicae Gold
Now with twice the sugar and five times the fizz! When imbibed, you heal damage equal to your healing rate. You may also use an action to thoroughly shake and hurl the can to a point within Short range, whereupon all creatures in a 2-yard radius from the point are doused and heal damage equal to half their healing rate.
>Trunk Beer
An earthy, bubbling brew derived from the boiled sap of dark-wooded trees in the rare foliage that sprouts along Noirre's borders, this concoction grants the imbiber 10 temporary hit points for 1 hour.
>Mana Tonic
A scintillating cyan potion made in elven breweries, sweetened with berry juice and infused with elemental air to disperse into a fog of clingy aether when poured. When imbibed, you regain one casting you expended of a spell you learned, or it can be applied to a weapon or up to five pieces of ammunition to make them magical for 1 hour. Once imbibed, you must complete a rest before you can benefit from its imbibed effect again.
