magic potion
Sorcerer's brewed liquid
A magic potion is a liquid preparation with supernatural powers—to heal, transform, grant abilities, or cast spells.
The term belongs primarily to fairy tales, fantasy, and folklore: The witch brewed a magic potion.
In casual use, it describes any remedy or solution that seems to work miraculously: There's no magic potion for weight loss.
