Sometimes I lost track of them and had to hunt round in a circle, thrusting through sharp-scented bushes, scratching myself on various plants which were still new to me: resinaceous rock-roses, juniper , ilex, yellow and white asphodel.

(UK, slang, archaic) Gin.
"juniper" is an old or dialect word meaning gin. If your teen uses it, they have most likely picked it up from a book, video game, period drama, or a regional grandparent rather than a modern peer group. There is no cause for concern here; the word is largely out of contemporary teen usage. If it appears in a school text, it is being studied for vocabulary or historical context. You can treat it like any other archaic vocabulary item.
"juniper" is obsolete or literary English meaning gin. It is mainly heard in British English (and Irish English). A more formal or neutral equivalent would be something like "gin" expressed in standard vocabulary. A common mistake is to use "juniper" in modern conversation; it will sound strange or theatrical. Recognise it in older texts, but use the modern equivalent when speaking. If you are a B2 or C1 learner, it is useful to recognise this word when you hear or read it, but think carefully about whether the situation really calls for it before using it yourself.
