Juniper Berries (Juniperus Communis) are the ripe, dried cones from the Juniper Evergreen Shrub. These small bluish purple berries deliver an intense spicy flavor with a slight overtone of pine. Best known as the flavoring for gin and other liqueurs, Juniper Berries are often used for cooking game meat. Juniper Berries can be used in a marinade or rubbed over the meat before grilling or roasting. Add Ground Juniper Berries to marinades for a wonderful flavor that takes away the gamey "bite" of deer, lamb or duck.
