How to get Dragon’s Breath in Survival Mode
You can add dragon’s breath to your inventory in Survival mode by obtaining it from an ender dragon. So let’s get started!
1. Find an Ender Dragon
You first need to find an ender dragon. The ender dragon is a boss mob that is found in the End dimension.
You can get to the End dimension by completing an End Portal that acts as a doorway between the Overworld and the End.
2. Wait for the Breath Attack
Once you find an ender dragon, wait for it to do a breath attack. After the attack, you will see a cloud of purple particles in the air. This is the dragon’s breath.
3. Gather the Particles in a Glass Bottle
Select your glass bottle in your hot bar and then move towards the purple cloud. When you are close enough to scoop some of these particles into your glass bottle, right click to fill the glass bottle.
Your glass bottle will change color and turn into dragon’s breath.
Dragon’s breath is a useful item and should be kept in your inventory to be used later in brewing recipes.
Now you have dragon’s breath in Minecraft!
