Item Description:
Juniper Berries (Juniperus Communis) are the ripe, dried cones from the Juniper evergreen shrub. These small, bluish-purple berries are about 1/4 inch wide with an intense, spicy flavor and a slight overtone of pine. Best known as the flavoring for gin and other liqueurs, Juniper Berries also have many medicinal claims along with their culinary applications. Tie a handful in cheesecloth and toss into your bath for an invigorating soak! Thought to drive away evil spirits, Juniper was often planted near the entrance of homes to prevent the entry of witches. It is believed that the holy family was sheltered by the branches of a Juniper tree when fleeing from King Herod. Juniper is believed to serve as a guardian.
