The potion system is very great, here are a few potions I would like to see added.
Shrink potion.
Ingredients: Nether Wart, Brown mushroom (Or reverse Grow potion)
Effects: Players shrink to half their size, less than one block high.
Uses: Fit into 1x1 holes, go unnoticed.
Grow potion.
Ingredients: Nether wart, Red mushroom (Or reverse Shrink potion)
Effects: Players grow to double their size, four blocks tall.
Uses: Better view. Mostly looks, can be used in pvp for intimidation or larger attack area.
Home potion.
Ingredients: Nether wart, Eye of ender
Effects: Causes the player to teleport back to their home.
Uses: Home teleport. In a splash form banish away enimies.
Note: It is a bit powerful, but may be limited to a certain amount of uses for a while.
There are already some extra potion effects in the game (Check the Wiki if you dont believe me), like Nausea (Makes your screen go crazy), Haste (quicker mining), Mining Fatigue (opposite of Haste), Jump Boost (Higher Jumping), Resistance (Protection from mobs) Water Breathing (Allows you to breathe under water),
Invisibility (Makes you invisible [doesnt actually work in game but is in the code as a potion effect]), Blindness (Creates fog around the player, prevents sprinting and critical hits), Night Vision (Allows you to see in the dark [doesnt actually work in game but is in the code as a potion effect]).
Anyways, I would really like to see some of those added into the game as actual potions.
I like the idea of more potions. Personally, Minecraft needs WAY more. If you're an alchemist, would YOU be restricted to simple effects, like speed and fire resistance? I THINK NOT.
Anyway, a few ideas I came up with on the spot that I haven't heard of before:
Potion of Illumination:
When drank, it causes you to light up and have light cast all around you for a certain amount of time (lengthened with redstone), no matter where you walk. It's like a portable torch!
When thrown as a splash, it causes the area to light up for a short time, like a piece of Glowstone that isn't solid and runs out.
Made with: I dunno, maybe if you craft Glowstone Dust with something, it makes, like, weak Glowstone Dust or something (I'm REALLY uncreative with names, aren't I?) that does nothing unless mixed with an Ackward potion, which makes this? There are probably better ways out there.
Potion of Propellence:
When drank, it makes all your hits with anything (your fist included) knock back your foes with the effects of Knockback 2 or 3 (depending on strength, power up with Glowstone Dust or lengthen with Redstone).
When thrown as splash, it Knockbacks anything with the same effect as said before, like if they were hit.
Made with: Umm... I have NO IDEA.
Potion of Nuetrality/However You Spell It:
When drank, nullifies all potion effects, like drinking milk. kind of wasteful as its made with milk anyway, but whatever.
When thrown as splash, clears the potion effects of everything within the splash area.
Made with: A milk bucket (will consume the milk, but not the bucket) mixed with Ackward Potion.
Designed to be used as splash, say, if you only want to weaken a target for a short time. Probably mainly used to be fired out of dispensers by map makers.
I may add more ideas later.

Explode Potion
- 1 Nether Wart, 1 sand, 1 gunpowder
- Makes into splash potion,
once thrown will blow up target completely.
Blaze Potion
-1 Nether Wart, 1 Blaze Powder, 1 Blaze Cream
I'm actually out of ideas for the Blaze Potion, any ideas?
-nether wart, ghast tear, and slime?
It's hard to think of what would be used to brew one.
