First, you need to gather everything required to brew a Potion of Regeneration. You will need a brewing stand that requires a blaze rod, which can only be obtained by killing blazes in Nether Fortresses in the Nether realm. Blaze rods can also be converted into blaze powder, which will be needed to fuel the brewing stand.

You will also need nether warts growing in the Nether Fortress to make the Awkward Potion, the base for every potion in the game.

Next, you will need ghast tears by killing ghasts in the Nether. These can be tricky to obtain since ghasts fly over lava lakes, and their drops can fall into the hot liquid after death. For each Potion of Regeneration, a ghast tear is required.

After you have collected all the resources, you can start brewing nether warts into a water bottle using blaze powder as the main fuel in the brewing stand. This will give you an Awkward Potion.

Once the nether wart is mixed for an Awkward Potion, you can place a ghast tear in the mixing slot to turn an Awkward Potion into a Potion of Regeneration. This potion will have a total of 45 seconds of duration.

Upgrades for the Potion of Regeneration

If you want to increase the potion's duration, you can further mix one redstone dust unit into the potion to increase its uptime by 45 seconds, making it run for one minute and 30 seconds.

If you want to increase the potency, you can further mix one glowstone dust into it. The base potion regenerates half a heart every 2.5 seconds. But with the upgrade, you will get half a heart every 1.2 seconds, allowing you to regenerate health a lot faster.
