Take the following dummy plot-recipe:

```julia
using Plots

struct Example end

@recipe function f(ex::Example)
    @series begin
        seriescolor --> 1
        [1:10, 1:10]
    end
    for n in 1:10
        @series begin
            seriestype --> :scatter
            seriescolor --> 2
            [n], [n+1]
        end
    end
end

ex = Example()

plot(ex)

```

Is there a way to assign the same `seriescolor` to all the `@series` elements within the loop, without me specifying the colour `2` in `seriescolor --> 2`? Keep in mind that this is just a MWE: in my real problem, I must retain the loop structure.
