They were in the home stretch!

Grabbing a clean spoon, Paulina added the peppermint to her cauldron. That done, she cleaned her metal stick and proceeded to stir the potion slowly in a clockwise direction until it had dissolved. Picking up her wand she waved it once more. She didn't get the point of this stuff, but there had to be a reason.

There was the spiral steam she was looking for! And the distinct smell of a greenhouse. Pleased, Paulina put out the fire. She was done!

Carefully Paulina poured out a sample for Professor Culloden before banishing the rest of her potion. Once a label was placed on it, she set it on his desk. Using Scourgify she cleaned up her work area and equipment before packing everything up. "Thanks for the lesson, Professor! Have a good day."

And she was off.

SPOILER!!: Paulina's Notes
AMORTENTIA

Ingredients
  • 8 flower heads of sneezewort (seperate the petals beforehand)
  • 8 berries of atropa belladonna
  • 8 chopped leaves of Alihotsy (prepared beforehand)
  • One frozen ashwinder egg broken in 8
  • 8 tea spoons of powdered moonstone
  • All the thorns of 8 roses
  • 8 drops of salamander blood
  • 8 table spoons of peppermint

Instructions
  1. Prepare the sneezewort, alihotsy, and moonstone.
  2. Fill the cauldron with purified water and add the sneezewort petals
  3. Light a fire under the cauldron and set it to maximum
  4. Add the heads of the sneezewort
  5. Stir 8 times clockwise with a metal stick
  6. Add the berries of atropa bellandonna one by one
  7. Sprinkle Alihotsy in a circle motion in clockwise direction
  8. Wave your wand. The colour should turn to dark red
  9. Wait for 25 minutes for pewter cauldrons, 13 for brass and 8 for copper
  10. In the meantime, break the egg into 8. If you break it into more pieces accidentally, get another egg.

  12. Stir vigorously clockwise with a metal stick until the colour is purple
  13. Sprinkle the moonstone in the middle of the cauldron
  14. Throw all the thorns in quickly
  15. Add the drops of salamander blood one by one: with each drop, observe that the potion turns to its distinctive mother-of-pearl sheen.

  17. Wave your wand again
  18. Put off the fire when you see the spiral steams and smell its aroma
