A potion of fruit juice is simply that: fruit juice. It adds 10 nutrition if cursed, 20 if uncursed, and 30 if blessed. The amount of nutrition is halved if the potion is diluted.

If you drink a potion of fruit juice, you will receive the message "This tastes like slime mold[1] juice." If you drink a diluted potion of fruit juice, you will receive the message "This tastes like reconstituted slime mold[1] juice." If you drink a potion of fruit juice while hallucinated, you will receive the message "This tastes like 10% real slime mold[1] juice all-natural beverage." If you drink a diluted potion of fruit juice while hallucinated, you will receive the message "This tastes like 10% real reconstituted slime mold[1] juice all-natural beverage."

The potion of see invisible will have the same messages. These potions are therefore difficult to tell apart by random quaffing. Some ways to tell the two apart include:

  • If you were blind and were unblinded, it was see invisible.
  • If you see previously invisible monsters - including yourself - after quaffing, it was see invisible (in SLASH'EM, invisible items will also become visible).
  • Zap a wand of enlightenment or otherwise attain enlightenment. If you have the see invisible intrinsic, it was see invisible.
  • Fruit juice is sold in a delicatessen; see invisible is not. If you see one of the two in a deli, it's fruit juice. Likewise, if a deli buys the potion, it's fruit juice.
  • Dipping a unicorn horn into a potion of sickness turns it into fruit juice.
  • Dipping an amethyst into a potion of booze turns it into fruit juice.
  • If you are on the border of a hunger change and it disappears upon quaffing, it was fruit juice; however, this is difficult to test.
  • Fruit juice is unaffected by cancellation.
