Pretty sure that lavender lemonade is the hot chocolate with cinnamon of season 7.
Early in season 1, Emma, Henry, and Mary-Margaret are shown to share a love of hot chocolate with cinnamon.
We the audience know that these three are related, even if they don't yet, so the drink serves to emphasize what's already known. Their shared taste for the beverage is framed as something that was inherited.
Season 7 has a lot of echoes of the first season. A lot of parallels. And I think that lavender lemonade could be considered as one of those parallels. The drink first appears for the first in the fifth episode, when Eudora brings Tiana a glass.
Tiana is upset, and the context and the tone of the moment imply that the lemonade was a comfort drink. Lavender lemonade shows up again in the ninth episode when we learned that it's Cecelia's favorite.
Note that, aside from Rapunzel poisoning Cecelia's drink, these are the only two times that lavender lemonade makes an appearance. And in both instances it's shown to be a favorite drink. Just like hot chocolate in season 1.
Cecelia also says that Rapunzel makes "the best lavender lemonade north of the bayou." And where is Eudora's and Tiana's palace located? In the middle of the bayou.
It could be entirely possible that Cecelia had, at some point in her life, tried Eudora's lemonade. Meaning, Eudora and Cecelia would've known one another in some capacity. Connecting these families years before Tiana and Ella had met.
I Just Can’t Give You Up
Bruce Banner/Justin Hammer for @winterhulk (@marvelrarepairbingo2022 Secret Santa Exchange)
A short while later, Bruce is dressed and ready to face whoever the hell brought him here. As he descends the spiral staircase, he hears funk music playing nearby: James Brown’s Get Up Offa That Thing. No AC/DC? Definitely not Tony.
At the bottom of the stairs is a roomy living space. One corner is a dining area, and the man at the table springs up and marches towards him. ‘Oh, hey! Good morning! I was starting to worry about you.’
Before he can respond, Bruce’s hand is grasped in a firm shake. ‘You were?’ he stutters.
‘Yeah. You were out for nearly fourteen hours. Must have needed the rest.’ He grins, flashing white teeth. ‘I’m Justin Hammer. I’m guessing you’ve heard of me?’
Of course: the perfectly-coiffed hair, the glasses, the grey suit with matching waistcoat… Justin Hammer has been all over the news lately. He’s not exactly the poster child of selfless acts.
Bruce glances around. There are no bars on the tall glass windows, and the place is full of very breakable furniture and ornaments. ‘Did you… kidnap me?’
‘Kidnap you?’ Justin looks scandalised. ‘Gosh no! Actually, you came to me. I found you unconscious in the snow after Hulk crashed out in my backyard – literally.’ He finally drops the handshake. ‘He also threw a semi into the koi pond, but I’ll get that fixed.’
Bruce laughs awkwardly. ‘Send Tony the bill. Um, I should go before I break anything else.’ He’s already backing away, wringing his hands. The less he has to do with Justin the better.
He’s halfway to the door when Justin calls, ‘You won’t stay for breakfast?’
The final word stops him in his tracks. Bruce is suddenly aware of the gnawing ache in his stomach. ‘I’m not hungry.’
‘You sure? We’ve got waffles, croissants, pancakes, French toast, avocado toast… all vegan, of course.’ When Bruce turns around, Justin shrugs and smiles. ‘Tony’s not the only one who can Google things. You’re like me, you like sweet things.’
The table is clustered with white plates on a blue tablecloth, all piled high with Bruce’s favourite breakfast foods. His mouth waters. ‘Just breakfast, huh? No strings attached?’
Justin sits down, already tucking a napkin into his shirt. ‘The door’s right there. We both know I can’t stop you.’
