Common juniper, a tiny evergreen buddy in the tree world, is like the cool cousin of cedar, cypress, and other forest pals. Its stylish, dark berries are the secret ingredients giving a zesty hint of citrus and pine goodness to dishes and drinks.
 
Up in Northern Europe, these juniper berries are the spice-du-jour for jazzing up game meats, sauerkraut, and even beer. And guess what? They're the rockstars behind the scenes in the world of gin, adding that extra oomph to your favorite tipple!
 
Keep in a well-sealed container away from drafts and excessive moisture and light.
 
Infuse the crushed berries in oil or alcohol for skin and hair products. Juniper berry tinctures are known for producing a warming sensation on the skin. Use in potpourri and floral displays. Add to soups, braised meats and game. The whole berries are also traditionally added to sauerkraut.
