Also called the May tree or the prickly apple, the hawthorn tree grows throughout North America and much of Europe. If you’ve ever seen or felt the puncture of its long thorns, you know why it’s a cousin of the rose plant. Red hawthorn berries are roughly the size of a cherry, and they taste both sweet and sour. Hawthorn berries have been used in traditional medicine for nearly 2,000 years. Native Americans used them for heart and stomach issues and as a food source. In the 1800s, American medical practitioners employed these berries for circulatory and respiratory health concerns.
