The pink peppercorn is the semi-ripe berry of the schinus bush and not a true peppercorn, as you can tell from its mild flavor. Pink peppercorns have a playful flavor with floral and camphor notes dancing around the mild, tingly pepper taste.

Pink peppercorns are a colorful and flavorful addition to cabbage slaw and other crunchy vegetable salads or sprinkled on salami and melon. Our spice muse Carol uses them atop her chocolate cupcakes like a gourmet sprinkle!
