Here’s the explanation for this spell for fellow baby witches
Spells come in many forms, including drinkable ones! You can call them potions if you like. They involve using herbs/flavors/scents etc with specific correspondents to fulfil a specific intention.
Honey signifies happiness and positivity and expels negativity, depression and anxiety.
Milk has correspondents too! Full cream milk signifies prosperity, nurturing, protection, success. Warm milk eases anxiety and anger. Here’s a list of correspondents for non-dairy milk types by @heximari
Citrine is a crystal that boosts joy and optimism, and clear quartz is used for protection and as an amplifier for other crystals.
Sigils are statements of intent drawn up into a little picture which you can write on your skin, on a paper, or in this case, stir into tea, to make a spell work better.
I started redesigning my old incognito pride potion bottles at the end of 2021, and here's the first redesign: Gay Pride, or the Happiness potion. I wanna try to get these as translucent stickers and charms, but what do my fellow cryptids think?

Oh all these potions present far too many possibilities
The happiness potion is an obvious answer, like the one which you gave to me. I want you to be happy.
The shrinking potion would be very entertaining. I could carry you around in my pocket. You would be even cuter than you already are.
The laziness potion provides the perfect opportunity for cuddles, while the invisibility potion means that you could help me with some mischief.
And I have to admit that I am really curious about the effects the love potion would have on you when you already claim to love me but that's probably not a good idea is it? Shut up, insecurities, I do not need more affection when he already gives me an abundance.
Anyway, those are my ideas, and because I love you I give you the choice of those potions. Take whichever or as many of those as you'd like. (But please choose one at least, humor me will you, darling?)

P.S. I love you, my hearth 💚
[Mum chooses: all of them.]
Aaravos hugs Loki tightly and kisses their cheek. "Oh, my love, it means so much to me that you would choose this one! But truly, starlight.... I do not feel that much happier than I generally am in your presence. Do you think it is broken?" He pulls back a bit, looking puzzled. "Ah, no matter. I am content just to be with you." He nuzzles their cheek and kisses them.
Happiness:
Shrinking:
Aaravos folds his arms. "Loki. Why?" He sighs. "If I am going to be tiny, then you must join me..." He smirks. "Or let me ride in your hair."
Laziness:
Draped across a couch, Aaravos reaches out to Loki. "C'mere, starlight~ I'm sleepy, are you?" He lowers his eyelids a bit, pleading. "Please, love?"
Invisibility:
Aaravos taps Loki on the shoulder. "Here I am!" He darts away to the wall. "No! Here!" Several illusion Aaravoses appear, each saying, "I'm here!" One seems to murmur "the Phantom of the Opera" after his declaration.
The real Aaravos sits in front of Loki, still invisible. "The worst part of this is that I cannot turn myself visible again, I must wait for it to wear off. I do not like waiting."
Love:
Sliding an arm around Loki's shoulders, he smiles adoringly at them. "Starlight, this potion seems to be broken. It's not changed anything!"
A Hearth Witch’s Stovetop Potion for a Happy and Safe Home 🍊💚
In the fall and winter when the weather gets chilly and the days never seem to be long enough, brew this little concoction to bring love, happiness, and prosperity to your home while veiling it in protection. I actually got this recipe from my fiance’s grandmother, but figured that with a little magic, it could do wonders as a potion or witch’s brew!
1 tsp cloves - protection, purification, repels bad energy
1 splash of vanilla - love, happiness, attracts good energy
Directions:
While focusing on your intent, add all ingredients to a small saucepan filled halfway with water. Stir five times clockwise to combine and charge. As you stir, say out loud:
My home is protected,
My home is happy,
My home is prosperous,
My home is full of love.
As I will it, so shall it be.
Turn burner on medium-high heat and bring the potion to a boil, once boiling, reduce heat to low-medium and allow the brew to simmer. Let the wonderful fragrance fill your home and blanket it in a veil of protection. Allow brew to simmer until you can no longer smell it, or until water completely evaporates (just be careful that you catch it before the oranges start cooking on the bottom of the pan, I’ve done that. Not cool.) If you want the brew to last longer, just add more water, and let it come to a boil again.
Inspired by Van Gogh eating yellow paint to get the happiness inside, I bring you a healthier alternative to get that yellow happiness inside of you.
Yellow drink (vaguely inspired by Starbucks secret menu)!
You will need:
☀️ 1 bag of green tea (Tazo Zen Green Tea, or a green tea that has hints of mint and lemon)
☀️ 2 cups of water
☀️ 1 ¼ cup (or 295 mL or 10 oz) of lemonade
☀️ Frozen peaches
☀️ *Sweetener to taste (you can do a pretty easy simple syrup by mixing equal parts sugar and water)
☀️ Milk of your choice (preferably coconut milk)
This drink will be roughly 30 oz. You can make it in a pitcher, or right into a bottle or glass if you have one big enough.
Steep 1 cup of water with your tea bag.
Once it’s steeped to your liking, take out the bag and pour into a cup with at least 30oz capacity. Add your cold water (make sure the container isn’t made of glass, or the temperature differential will make it pop), your lemonade and your frozen peaches.
Finally, taste and add sweetener and milk to your liking!
Let the happiness move down your body, and feel the cold liquid spreading joy on its way down!
*do not use powdered sweeteners like regular white sugar, because it will not dissolve in cold water
to incite feelings of happiness and calm, as well as temporarily relieve feelings of sadness and anxiety. 🌼
Recipe 🍃;
Lavender
Chamomile
Lemongrass
Yarrow flower
Honey or agave
Milk or plant milk (optional)
Brew the tea and pour it into your favorite teacup or mug, the one that gives you a spark of a sunny feeling on a rainy day. 🌦🌻
Stir in your honey or agave clockwise and set the intention for it to bring you the light you need in that moment. Add plant milk if you want, and wait for it to cool 🍶🌼
My experience;
I was having a pretty bad day before I brewed this tea. Lots of crying, which was helping me feel better, but not like I needed it to. I drank 2 cups of this with some agave and rice milk, & I felt and still feel so much better. This potion is like a warm, loving hug that gives me happy butterflies in my stomach. My husband and I drank a lot and that lavender put us right to sleep for a much needed afternoon nap. Now as I’m awake, I’m still feeling the effects 💓
🍯 this potion is to bring about happiness and positivity throughout your day and to you! <3 I use it on mornings where I feel anxious or have been hit with a depression crash so I really recommend doing it during the morning. I usually also offer it to Apollon so *finger guns*
