Fans think they've worked out the time gap between Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a sequel to 2017's Breath of the Wild, and even before the game was released we knew some time had passed between the two.
How much time? That remains something of a mystery — and something Nintendo itself has shied away from providing any official timeline for.
However, I — and other fans — think we may have sussed it. Please note, there are some minor Tears of the Kingdom spoilers below.
Perhaps most interesting, or at least most amusing to me, is that Link is now considered «all grown up» in the eyes of the Gerudo — and able to unwind at the end of the day with a presumably alcoholic beverage.

Once Link delivers the ice and tells Pokki her drink is ready for her, he can return to the bar and try and order a drink for himself. However, Furosa tells Link to come back when he is «all grown up» and that she will give him a Noble Pursuit to celebrate. This suggests that Link is not at the legal drinking age in Hyrule.
However, in Tears of the Kingdom, Link can finally get his hands on the Gerudo's most refreshing and fruity beverage, and order a «Noble Pursuit» from the Gerudo Town bar.
As a side note, in Tears of the Kingdom you can whip up a glass of Noble Pursuit at a cooking pot with a combination of Hydromelons, Palm Fruit, Voltfruit, and Rock Salt (which in my mind goes around the rim like a margarita).
