Elsa/Kristoff is the het pairing of Elsa and Kristoff from Frozen and from Once Upon a Time.
Fandom
Elsa/Kristoff, while not as popular as other Frozen ships, it still has several loyal followers, many of whom started shipping it before the first film was released and/or finished watching it. This was due to the many people expected Anna/Hans to end up together and eventually Elsa & Kristoff meeting and falling in love by the end of film, which was because of Elsa's powers and Kristoff was an ice harvester/mountain man who was impressed by her ice sculpting features. By the end of the first Frozen movie, it's revealed that Kristoff ends up with Anna, although fans still ship the pairing Elsa/Kristoff - some of the fans are still a fan of Anna/Hans.
Once Upon A Time
A few new fans started shipping the pairing due to Once Upon a Time Season 4's Frozen arc. Elsa and Kristoff was shown onscreen more together, eventually bonding as they look for Anna. Due to this, various gifs and picspams were created and reblogged on Tumblr. Even some fans actually also shipped the actors together due to their chemistry: Scott Michael Foster/Georgina Haig.

- Ice by The Legend of Rune Factory, Ice was his life. Everything about her reminded him of his favorite thing. Her delicately braided platinum hair, her crystalline blue eyes, her pale, pale white skin... He shivered to think of her. Elsa was, indeed, the true queen of the ice and snow.
