Juniper Berries, Whole

Juniper berries have a sweet, warm flavour with notes of pine. Like gin? You will love juniper berries! They are gin’s main ingredient and are also used to garnish gin and tonics.

Interestingly, Juniper Berries are not actually berries — they’re a cone with unusually fleshy and merged scales, which give it that berry-like appearance. High in antioxidants, Juniper Berries have been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties and in traditional medicine, they’ve been used to treat a variety of ailments, including digestive issues, respiratory infections, and joint pain.

These large purple berries are ideal with Game such as pheasant, venison and even duck. They are a delicious addition to the Italian hunter’s stew or even a potato gratin. Crush lightly before use to unleash their flavour!
