Juniper Berries are dried aromatic berries with a clean, piney, resinous flavour and a long history of use in herbal and culinary traditions. They are commonly prepared as infusions and are traditionally used in fluid-balance, urinary-comfort and digestive-support routines. Juniper is also valued for its warming, carminative character and fresh decongestant-style aroma. These berries should be lightly crushed before infusion to help release their flavour and active botanical character.
♡ Why we love it: Juniper berries bring a bold, forest-fresh note to herbal teas and traditional blends. They are especially useful where a piney, warming botanical is wanted for fluid-balance, digestion and clear-feeling seasonal routines.
