Green Potion is a recurring item in the Legend of Zelda series. This potion, easily identified by its green color, restores the magic power of Link when he drinks it. As such, it only appears in games the feature a Magic Meter. These potions can only be carried in bottles. They are traditionally the cheapest of the three potions that regularly appear, the other two being Red and Blue Potion.

Green Potion can be purchased from the Magic Shop north of the Eastern Palace for the price of 30 Rupees. Green Potion can also be obtained by throwing an empty bottle into a Great Fairy's Fountain; if Link answers truthfully when the Great Fairy appears and asks him whether or not he dropped it, the Great Fairy will reward his candor by filling the bottle with Green Potion.
Green or Blue Potions are needed in order to clear Turtle Rock, the seventh and final dungeon in the Dark World; the Cane of Somaria, which is needed to create blocks that transport Link through the dungeon, drains a considerable amount of magic when used.
[edit] The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask

Green Potion can be purchased from various potion shops in both games. It has the same appearance and function in both games.
In Ocarina of Time, Green Potion can be purchased from the Medicine Shop.
In Majora's Mask, Green Potion can be purchased from Koume, who is the proprietor of the Magic Hags' Potion Shop in the Southern Swamp or from the Trading Post in West Clock Town, though Green Potion from the latter is more expensive.

Green Potion can be purchased both from Doc Bandam on Windfall Island. Doc Bandam will start selling Green Potion if he is given fifteen globs of Green Chu Jelly, and he will give Link a free Green Potion if he receives 5 more globs.
[edit] The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
A Magic Meter and, by extension, Green Potion was originally supposed to appear in Twilight Princess; the Magic Meter is even seen in early beta screenshots from the game. However, the idea of a Magic Meter in the game was eventually scrapped from the final version of the game. A special breed of ChuChu known as the Green ChuChu, whose Chu Jelly was supposed to replenish Link's magic, was also slated to appear. One Green ChuChu does appear in the Cave of Ordeals, but is a mix of two different breeds of ChuChu and its Chu Jelly does not have any magical properties.
