All 5 Bottle Locations in Ocarina of Time Remake
Find all five bottles in the Switch 2 remake, including the Potion Shop reward, Ruto’s Letter and the 500-point Big Poe bottle, with existing location pictures.
Where are all five bottles?
The order below is a convenient checklist, not a required sequence. The Potion Shop reward is an addition in the Switch 2 remake; a four-bottle N64 checklist will miss it. Open a picture to enlarge it, or follow its map link to record collection progress.
How do I collect each bottle?
1. Market · Potion Shop bug
Before you go: Child
Offer to catch the shopkeeper's escaped bug, use the lent bottle and return it; the source says you keep the bottle with Red Potion.
2. Lon Lon Ranch · Super Cucco game
Before you go: Child; daytime; wake Talon first; 10 Rupees per source
Wake Talon at the castle first. Visit his ranch house by day and find his three Super Cuccos within 30 seconds; entry is 10 Rupees.
3. Kakariko Village · Seven missing Cuccos
Before you go: Child
Return all seven Cuccos to the pen and talk to the Cucco Lady for a bottle.
4. Lake Hylia · Ruto's letter bottle
Before you go: Child; Silver Scale
Use the Silver Scale to dive near the Zora's Domain tunnel outlet and pick up the letter bottle.
5. Market · Poe Collector's bottle
Before you go: Adult; Epona; Fairy Bow; bottle; 500 points per source
Catch Big Poe souls while riding Epona and trade them to the collector. The source awards a bottle at 500 points.
When does Ruto’s Letter become an empty bottle?
Bring the lake bottle to King Zora and show him the letter. The bottle then becomes available for other contents. Picking it up at Lake Hylia is only the first part of the task; use the illustrated steps below if the letter is still inside.
Show the bottle and catch a fish
Zora's Domain · Zora’s Domain
- Show the lake bottle to King Zora to clear the rear passage. Use the now-empty bottle to catch a fish in the southern shallows on the lowest level, then go behind the throne.
How do I get the fifth bottle?
As an adult, use Epona, the Fairy Bow and an empty bottle to capture Big Poe souls in Hyrule Field. Sell five souls to the Poe Collector beside the Castle Town entrance to reach 500 points. This is the adult reward; you do not need it before Jabu-Jabu’s Belly.
What if my bottle is not empty?
A bottle containing milk, potion or a quest item is already owned, but cannot hold another item until its current contents are used or delivered. Use Talon’s milk when you need healing; deliver Ruto’s Letter to King Zora. Keep a free bottle ready before collecting a soul or Blue Fire.
