Potions are NOT that hard to drink

Potions can be quaffed by using a Bonus Action. Potions can, as always, be retrieved from any reasonably easy to reach location like a belt, belt pouch, bandoleer, but not from a backpack-on-your-back, saddlebag, or Bag of Holding (per its own rules) with a use of the ‘interact with one object or feature of the environment for free, during either your move or your action’ as described in the PHB. They can now be consumed by expending either your action OR bonus action, instead of just on your action only. Spending “your entire turn” to drink a potion… just feels bad. Feeding a potion to another player or to an unconscious target however, does take a full action.
