Quick Links
The Noble Pursuit drink was part of a Shrine Quest inBreath of the Wild (BotW), but inTears of the Kingdom, Link can buy one for himself. Unless players know the recipe for Noble Pursuit, it won’t be obtainable until some progress has been made in one of the main quests. Once it becomes available, it can be purchased in Gerudo Town.
ReturningBotWfans may be wondering if Noble Pursuit is required for unlocking a Shrine. Itistied to a side event inTears of the Kingdom, but using it won’t reveal the location of any Shrines of Light. Thus, it may be better to just hold onto Noble Pursuits for whenever Link is low on health.

How to Get Noble Pursuit Drink
Players will need to complete the “Riju of Gerudo Town” main quest/clear the Lightning Temple before the Noble Pursuit can be bought. When Link first arrives in Gerudo Town, it will be completely abandoned. The Gerudo Town residents are revealed to be hiding in an underground shelter. Only by helping Riju and ridding the area of the sandstorm and Gibdos will Gerudo Town return to its former glory.
Return to Gerudo Town after the Lightning Temple, and go to theNoble Canteen. This is to theright from the north gateat coordinates-3854, -2857, 0046. There are two ways to get Noble Pursuit from the Noble Canteenfor free:
After these freebies, Link will need to pay like everyone else for the cocktail drink. The price is a cheap20 Rupees, but players should decide if they want to spend money on it, or save their Rupees for other materials.
Sometimes the bartender will comment about running low on ice for the Noble Canteen. Players can restock the ice by going to theNorthern Ice House(-3747, -2306, 0040) and assisting Anche.
Where to Use Noble Pursuit
During theevenings, Gerudo Town hosts a class called “Voe and You” in theunderground shelterat-3863, -2989, 0032. Speak to the teacher (Ashai) to volunteer for the class. There are three Gerudo students that will try to speak to Link, but each one has their own problem. The Noble Pursuit is used to help thesecondstudent,Pritana. Players will need to helpNali, thefirststudent, before they can speak with Pritana. To help Nali, equip headgear thatcovers Link’s face(ex:Majora’s Mask or Cece’s Hat).
When speaking to Pritana during the Voe and You class, she’ll mention the Noble Pursuit. If Link has one in his inventory, he can give it to her to help with the lesson. Unfortunately for those expecting a reward, helping the Voe and You students doesn’t net any rewards.

Noble Pursuit Recipe
A Noble Pursuitfrom the Canteenwill restore4 Hearts. If Link wants a Noble Pursuit that restoresmoreHP, then he’ll have to make his own. The drink requires the following:
Rock Salt
Players can chooseup to 5 ingredientswhen cooking. This means they can doubleany of the ingredientswhen making a Noble Pursuit, since the recipe calls for one of each: Hydromelon, Palm Fruit, Voltfruit, and Rock Salt.Adding an extra fruitwill create a Noble Pursuit that restores Link’s health by5 Hearts.
If players want to “cook” a really strong Noble Pursuit, they should throw one togetherduring a Blood Moon. This can create a Noble Pursuit that restores5+ Hearts. However, aside from HP Recover, the Noble Pursuit doesn’t give Link anyextra effects(ex: weather resistance).
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomis available for Nintendo Switch.
