Potion colour effects not working?

I used to be able to use

Code:

player.getLocation().getWorld().playEffect(player.getLocation(), Effect.POTION_BREAK, 5);

And it would play the potion break effect, with the number changing the colour. So 5 would say be blue, 11 might be red, 15 green, etc.

As of 1.9 I can't do this anymore. All numbers are now blue. Is there a way to fix this? I really want the red, green, orange etc colours back.

I didn't know you could do this!
But have you tried RGB colors? Or Hex codes?

 

desperately need a fix for this

How would i got about using rgb or hex?

 

@zzienzz
Printing out the data needed for the effect using
"System.out.println(Effect.POTION_BREAK.getData());"
prints:
"class org.bukkit.potion.Potion".

Try to pass it a potion instead of a number.
BEWARE: I printed that with a 1.8 jar. Do it again for yourself with your 1.9 one!
