D&D General Potions restoring spell slots?

[Casimir Liber]

Was musing on this - I recall a feature of sme online games is finding potions that restore mana. Has anyone seen any written for D&D (any edition) that restore spell slots of points?

World of Warcraft RPG had some, I think they restored 1d4 levels of spell slots, with greater potions adding in additional slots so that a major mana potion might be 1d4+2 and a greater mana potion would be 1d4+5. I'm not sure if those numbers would work for 5e, though I have considered including them. I might base them off the pearl of power though, ending up with something like:

Minor mana potion. Restore 1 spell slot of up to 3rd level.
Major mana potion. Restore 2 spell slots of up to 3rd level or 1 spell slot of up to 5th level.

I'd mimic it on the Wizard's Arcane Recovery feature.

A "one use" pearl of power might be a good basis to design such a potion?

I remember the Diablo II late 2e/early 3e having mana potions.

I'd mimic it on the Wizard's Arcane Recovery feature.

I like this idea as an easy quantum

I created a custom point in my game: Potion of Vitality (or Major Vitality).

It simulates the effect of a short or long (for the major one) rest. Definitely one of those items no PC knows how to make, they are very special treasure!

They seem like they would be quite powerful to have around, but would extend the casters to more encounters. I might suggest a minor potion to grant 1d4 levels of spells and a major one to grant 1d6+1. Then let the player choose what spells and if he wants a few low level or one high level, depending on his roll.

Dragon Warriors, which is a system parallel to D&D from the 1980s, had a "replenishment potion", which gave the user 2d4 mana points back (you got about 4 such points per level, so a level 10 sorcerer would have about 40 mana points)

There are pearls of power that let you recover spell slots, casters that have channel divinity can also get an Amulet of the Devout. The other option is ring of spell storing.

But potions? Nothing official I've ever seen.
