Juniper Berry Tea - 18 bag

The juniper bush has been cultivated in Europe for centuries. Their flavorful berries provide a dynamic flavor often used in seasoning, and make a unique herbal tea.

Native to the temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, juniper trees can often be found in cold, dry regions where most woody plants fail to grow. The trees are popular as an ornamental shrub, and their wood is sometimes used to make crafts such as utensils and containers. The juniper berries produced by the female trees are surprisingly berries in name only, and are in fact rounded cones with smooth scales, which gives them the appearance of a berry. Because of this, juniper berries provide a strong, robust flavor when crushed, which is preferred for seasoning meats. Juniper berry tea is strongly aromatic, bearing a distinct and pleasant taste.

While you enjoy the dynamic flavor of juniper berry tea, you are also providing your body with a boost of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Juniper berry is a natural source of vitamin C, thiamin, niacin and riboflavin, along with minerals like iron, chromium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and zinc. Many of the constituents of juniper berry also offer antioxidant properties, including tannings, flavonoids, and catechins. With these strong, nourishing constituents, juniper berry tea is a great way to reinforce a naturally healthy diet.
