This is why I don't give my party in DND unidentified potions anymore after one decided to make a Molotov cocktail out of a potion of superior healing lmao (I tried to dissuade, they insisted, we had a standing rule potions could work by smashing, also at this player's insistence lol).

We allow sloppy drinking or feeding potions as a bonus action. Smashing works too for half effect. (Max amount for healing potions with a full action.)

ONCE, two players were in darkness and one asked if he could feed a healing potion to the other, knowing where he was. The DM agreed.

The potion was actually a philter of love. When the darkness dropped the first creature the imbiber saw was instantly killed.

As it's a lighthearted game, all but the imbiber thought it was hilarious.

LOL bad potion to roll the unidentified potions roulette :')

I allowed smashing cause player was doing an anarchist punk (mohawk, leather vest, enough piercings I think I would have had to tell them heat metal cast on them was an instant KO lol) and was adamant that was how they'd administer first aid... The compromise was they'd stop calling every NPC who wasn't poor a capitalist pig while the party was trying to negotiate. Think no one in the party had above 9 charisma and they all insisted on playing like a mafia, they didn't need the help to tank their negotiations lmao.
