Saradomin brew

Saradomin brew is made by mixing toadflax and a crushed bird's nest in a vial of water, giving 180 Herblore experience. It requires level 81 Herblore. It is slightly lighter in colour than a normal strength potion.

Saradomin brew temporarily raises your Life Points by 15% (it is one of few ways to raise your Life points above the normal maximum. This effect does NOT stack with Rocktail) and your Defence by 25% (better than a super defence potion if your Defence level is higher than 50). However, it also temporarily lowers your Strength, Attack, Magic and Ranged by 10%. A 4-dose Saradomin Brew can heal 640 LP (160 LP per dose) in total. It is recommended to also use regular restore, super restore, or overload potions to counteract the negative effect that the brew has on Attack, Strength, Magic and Range.

The brew heals the highest non-stackable life points per inventory spot (the Unicorn Stallion's healing aura scroll and purple sweets can be stacked for approximately 42 billion life points), and so, is often used in conjunction with Super restore potions in places such as in the TzHaar Fight Cave while attempting to obtain a Fire cape, high-levelled Bounty Hunting, during Barrows runs (to decrease the number of bank trips required), and even in Nomad's Requiem to defeat Nomad. The Saradomin brew may not be consumed in clan wars or when duelling if food is disabled.

Production costs
The table is based on buying the ingredients (vial of water, toadflax, and crushed birds nest) from the Grand Exchange and selling the resulting 3 dose potion there.

Trivia

 * There is no Barbarian version of this potion.
 * When it is ingested the chatbox message says, "You drink some of the foul liquid", unlike other potions message - "You drink some of your (potion's name) . You have (1-3) doses left/You have finished your potion." This is rather strange, since you would expect a potion of Saradomin to be pleasant, not foul tasting! However, crushed bird nests can't taste very good!
 * Up until an update in 2010, Saradomin Brews could be clicked in succession with a piece of food and be consumed at the same time. This has been unfixed.
