It’s uncommon to find fresh bayberries outside of China. That’s because they’re delicate and spoil easily. This reddish fruit is juicy and has a slightly acidic flavor.
Bayberries are rich in phytochemicals — plant chemicals that may have health benefits — and antioxidants like vitamins A, C, and E. They’re also a good source of folate. Look for them juiced, canned, dried, or frozen.
