Pokémon Mint Pokepuff Recipe

The world has been gripped by a Pokémon Go frenzy. Players across the world are bumping into street posts and people, crowding special locations and even bunking off work to search for Pokémons.

Indeed, some restaurants are buying ‘lures’ which attract Pokémon characters to their localities, also beckoning hordes of customers. Restaurants are also offering special discounts and meals for Players – some are even going as far to create themed dishes.

In honour of the game and the return of Pokémon Go’s popularity, we’ve put together a themed recipe ourselves; a Mint Pokepuff.

Pokepuffs

Pokepuffs are special treats that players can feed their characters to increase their affection towards them. Higher affection levels help their battle performances.

Pokepuffs come in a range of different flavours, from citrus to mocha to mint.

On the occasion of Pokémon Go’s popularity, we thought we’d put together a mint Pokepuff recipe – whip some up at home and eat them to refresh yourself after a long day of Pokémon hunting. Or carry a batch along while you play to increase other players’ affection towards you?
