Happy Lammas or Lughnasadh everyone!
Juniper berries are not really something that is used much anymore, however, if you’re a fan of the Skyrim series you may have heard a quote or two about juniper berries being used in mead. Juniper berries, which are not actually berries, are the seed cones from the Juniper plant, are used as a spice in cooking. Magically, juniper berries have been used throughout Europe as incense, hung on doors to protect homes, burned during exorcisms, worn for protection, used in love spells, and used to break curses and hexes.
