juniper berry
A juniper berry is the female seed cone produced by the various species of junipers. It is not a true berry but a cone with unusually fleshy and merged scales, which give it a berry-like appearance. The cones from a handful of species, especially ''Juniperus communis'', are used as a spice, particularly in European cuisine, and also give gin its distinctive flavour. Juniper berries have been called the only spice derived from conifers,〔 (Chapter 8: Seeds, Fruits, and Cones ). Retrieved July 27, 2006.〕 although tar and inner bark (used as a sweetener in Apache cuisines) from pine trees is sometimes considered a spice as well.
==Species==
All juniper species grow berries, but some are considered too bitter to eat. In addition to ''J. communis'', other edible species include ''Juniperus drupacea'', ''Juniperus phoenicea'', ''Juniperus deppeana'', and ''Juniperus californica''. Some species, for example ''Juniperus sabina'', are toxic and consumption is inadvisable.
