Cubeb Berries (Piper cubeba) are fragrant, tailed peppercorns used to bring a peppery, warm-spiced note to cooking and infusions. They are especially popular as a gin botanical and also work well in tagines, stews, rubs, and spiced baking. Crushing the berries just before use helps release their bright, resinous aroma.
