Recipe: Juniper berries and substitutions

Ed, juniper berries are the basis of gin. Here are substitutes as listed in Cook's Thesaurus:

gin (This substitution works well in sauces that accompany game. Substitute one teaspoon gin for every two berries called for in the recipe.) OR equal parts crushed bay leaves and caraway seeds

I would guess specialty markets like Pusateri's at Ave Rd and Lawrence would have them, or the stores in Kensington Market.
