The Juniper Tree is an evergreen shrub that grows in many parts of the world, including Asia, Europe and North America. This tree is identified by its stiff and needle-like blue-green leaves, small yellow or blue flowers and berries. These “berries” are actually seed cones that are small and fleshy. They are commonly referred to as “berries” due to their appearance. Juniper berries take 2-3 years to mature. In the first year the plant produces a flower, during the second year there is a hard green berry, and by the third year they are ripening to a deep blue. Juniper berries can be crushed, like peppercorns, or the juice and oil can be pressed. The berries are picked in the fall, once the plant has numerous “blue” berries. Juniper berries are not eaten in handfuls, straight off the bush like the sweet blueberries that they resemble. They have a strong, woody, spicy, pepper-like flavor and gritty texture.
