Leech juice

A bottle with some leech juice.

Leech juice is a fluid comprised of crushed and liquefied leeches.[1] It's used in potion-making: in the Shrinking Solution a dash of leech juice is one of the ingredients (adding too much, however, causes the potion to turn orange instead of the bright acid green it's supposed to be; this can prove disastrous, as making errors in the potion can cause the mixture to become poisonous).[2]
