Default Fresh juniper berries--question

I moved to juniper country about a year and a half ago. There are fresh juniper berries all over. They're not used in much that I know of, but I was wondering:

Does anybody have any ideas of something really good to use them for?

A common use for juniper berries in a sauce for game. You can add them to a bordalais, for instance, when serving venison. Many find that it counters the "gamey" flavor that can cut through certain meats. I have tried juniper berries with venison and rabbit, and it worked well.

And as mentioned, there's always gin...
