[[File:.png|20x20px]] [[|]] The Blue Potion in a recurring Potion in the Zelda series, commonly used to restore both health and Magic Power.
Location and Uses
Inception and Original Usage
The Blue Potion first appeared in The Legend of Zelda, where it could purchased by receiving the Letter from an Old Man in a cave in northeast Hyrule, and then showing it to various Old Women. Once the letter is delivered, the Blue and Red Potions will become available for Link to purchase, costing 40 and 60 Rupees, respectively. However, unlike later versions of the Blue Potion that could replenish both Magic and health, it was merely a one time use health Potion, due to Magic not existing in the game. In A Link to the Past, the Blue Potion was used to restore both health and Magic. Just like Red and Green Potions, Link needs an empty Bottle to carry it in.
In Majora's Mask Link can either purchase a Bottle of Blue Potion from the Ikana Canyon Business Scrub for 100 Rupees or give a Magic Mushroom to Kotake at the Magic Hags' Potion Shop, who will then use it to create Blue Potions and sell them for 60 Rupees each. They cure the Jinx status that Blue Bubbles inflict.
There are two ways to obtain the Blue Potion in The Wind Waker. The first is to collect 4 Boko Baba Seeds from defeating Boko Babas and then giving them to Hollo, who will mix a Blue Potion for Link. The second way is to collect 15 Blue Chu Jellies from Blue ChuChus and trade them to Doc Bandam on Windfall Island. He will use them to make a Blue Potion and give Link the first sample for free, and from then on will have it for sale at 60 Rupees.
As a Health Restorer Only
Blue Potions in Twilight Princess can be obtained by defeating a Blue Chuchu and scooping its Chu Jelly into an empty Bottle. The blue jelly of a Blue Chuchu act like a Red Potion, restoring all hearts. Blue Potions can also be bought from the Goron's son in Kakariko Village, the shop in the City in the Sky, or from Malo Mart in Hyrule Castle. Blue Potions only restores hearts, as the Magic Meter did not appear in Twilight Prncess. Likewise, Blue Potions from The Minish Cap will restore up to 8 hearts only.
Only The Legend of Zelda features Blue Potions as Red Potion's inferior. It costs 40 Rupees and restores all hearts when used. After it is used, the slot in the inventory reverts to the Letter, as opposed to the Red Potion, which would revert into a Blue Potion instead.
The Blue Potion also appears in A Link Between Worlds. It completely fills Link's life bar, making it the most powerful health-restoring Potion in the game. It can be bought from the Witch's House for 200 Rupees and 10 Monster Tails.
Other Blue Potions
Skyward Sword features two types of Blue Potions, Air and Guardian Potions. Although they work different, as they reduce the rate at which the Oxygen Gauge depletes and cut damage from enemies, respectively.
