Either way, Hebe was often to be found serving up the nectar to the guest gods and goddesses of Zeus. Hebe is known as the child of Zeus and Hera, but there is another myth that states Hera conceived her by eating wild lettuce while dining with the god Apollo. In later days, after Heracles was granted his divinity, she became his wife and they had twin sons together.
She had the gift of eternal youth, and that was reflected in her adolescent figure and fresh-faced appearance. Despite her seemingly mundane duties, Hebe had advantages, too.
