Zelda Ice Arrow Mints

The peppermint is useful. The Hylian shield tin is the reason to choose these over ordinary mints. Zelda Ice Arrow Mints turn a small candy container into a nod to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, without asking you to find room for another full-size collectible.

The tin measures 2.5 by 3 by 0.5 inches and holds peppermint candies. It’s officially licensed Zelda merchandise, and the container is reusable once the mints are gone. That gives it something to do beyond the first round of fresh breath: refill it with mints, or keep it as a little shield-shaped keeper for small odds and ends.

This makes sense as a small gift for an Ocarina of Time fan who likes useful souvenirs. If all you want is peppermint, the Zelda connection doesn’t add much. If the shield is what catches your eye, the candy is a pleasant opening act.
