Juniper berries, the small, dark blue fruits of the Juniperus tree, are known for their piney, slightly citrusy, and mildly bitter flavor. Best recognized as the key botanical in gin, they also enhance savory dishes, particularly in European cuisine, where they are used to flavor game meats, sauerkraut, and stews. With a long history in herbal medicine, juniper berries have been valued for their potential diuretic, anti-inflammatory, and digestive properties. They were historically used by ancient civilizations for purification rituals and were even believed to ward off evil spirits. Despite their name, juniper berries are not true berries but rather seed cones with a fleshy, berry-like appearance.
