Thunderbrew was a potion that when consumed created a storm around the drinker which would stun and damage enemies nearby. It was primarily used for combat.
Description[]
A recipe as well as the ingredients for Thunderbrew was sold at Tomes and Scrolls in Hogsmeade, though one could also acquire the ingredients as well as the potion itself from J. Pippin's Potions at the time. Brewing Thunderbrew took about 1 minute and 30 seconds. The storm created by the potion were in the form of a circle of dark clouds swirling counterclockwise around the drinker with about three metres' distance from them, with bluish lightning bolts being produced from the clouds.[1]
History[]
1890[]
In 1890, Professor Aesop Sharp, Potions Master at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, instructed a fifth-year student to acquire and use Thunderbrew in combat, among other tasks, before he was willing to teach them the Severing Charm.[1]
In the 1890s, a recipe as well as the ingredients for Thunderbrew could be purchased from Thomas Brown at Tomes and Scrolls in Hogsmeade. Around the same time, the ingredients were also sold by J. Pippin at J. Pippin's Potions in Hogsmeade, who also manufactured and sold the potion itself.[1]

Instructions[]
In order to brew Thunderbrew, a cauldron sitting on top of a live fire was needed. Into the cauldron, one would pour a small jar of juice squeezed from a single leech, drop in one Shrivelfig fruit and pour in from a container the essence of an Inferius, known as Stench of the Dead, and stir the potion with a large ladle four times clockwise, then wait for about 1 minute and 30 seconds for the brew to finish. The moment the three ingredients were dropped into the cauldron together, a rather large explosion of fiery sparks and purple smoke would be produced, and for the remainder of the brewing, the mixture would be producing purple smoke.[1]
