This has always made me wonder why PCs/npcs don't just consolidate all their healing potions into 1 giant flask, and down the entire content at 1 go (probably a full round action at most), instead of wasting precious actions slowly quaffing individual potions one by one?

Or what if they could carry a water backpack filled with liters of cure serious wounds, with a tube leading to the wearer's mouth, and he can sip the healing potion as he fights....

Oooh, or rig up a fantasy version of one of those soda-drinking hats (preferably with the #1 logo on it).

Orangina bottle, leather strips, cork it - LARP prop done.
Thats not new to the scene, really. But its a great prop - no doubt about that.

Over here in Zagreb, a fancy/folksy gift shop called Grandma's House sells these.

Isn't 10 oz. rather large for a potion? And rather expensive?

I'd suggest American Science & Surplus.

In the glass bottles & jars section under containers, you can find small vials in all shapes, sizes and colors. Most of them don't cost more than 10 to 20 cents a bottle.

They also stock corks, stoppers and lids.

American Science and Surplus should be on EVERY geek's bookmarks.

Add yourself to their catalog list, too. It's like getting your own personal copy of Aurora's Whole Realms catalog every month.

If you have a container store near you, they have a bunch of various sized glass jars with cork stoppers and non cork stoppers...

As for orangina... oye...

Once while travelling through europe with some friends (while we were high school age) we had a bottle of vodka... and only had orangina instead of orange juice.

NOT the same.

I guess Orangina is exotic enough outside of France to be used as an RPG prop... But in its home country, that would be like using a coke bottle "huh ? magic potions are made with orangina bottle ?"

And someone would ask "but why is he so evil ?" [ame=http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=jwXsI_q1W7Q]YouTube - Orangina rouge[/ame]
