I’d suggest the non healers carry the potions. That way if a healer goes unconscious, they could use their action to pour a potion down the sleeper’s throat.
So the way I use potions in my games is you can use a bonus action to drink it and roll for the value since you’re still trying to fight or whatever with your action, or you can take a full action to eat the whole thing, vial and all, and you get the max amount of healing.
(just kidding, you don’t have to actually eat the vial. I was making a VLDL reference.)

Ok, good suggestion. Nadir takes one potion and Peregrin can have the other. Now everyone can heal to some extent.
Nadir quickly recollects the previous fights to try and figure out what she could have done different and recovers some self-confidence. Second wind: 6
Ok. This time when you step through the door you’re on a rough volcanic field. There’s boulders strewn about and the ground is stony, the sky is dark and you’re in dim light. North of you 60 ft is a kobold and a kobold underling. To the west is a manes, to the east is a ligotti, and to the south is Lord Khaspere Drylund. Roll initiative!

Nadir throws a javelin at the Jermlaine, "Stop throwing knives at me!"

The javelin slams into it, skewering it gruesomely and spattering blood and guts everywhere. It’s dead.

Aand you get a short rest, 50 XP each, 33 gp +3 from the audience, and two potions of healing of the most common variant. Who wants them?

With luck, you should reach lvl 2 today!

Another wave of 6 and we're done!
These potions are worth 50GP each, right? Maybe we don't need them? Nadir will try without, perhaps best to give them to our healers, just in case?

Count Druman is ready to go!
How many more long rest until Sir Spitz is fight ready? Might have to put an order in for a lance soon!
