Pink berries also known as ‘pink pepper’ because they belong to the category of false peppers.

Pink berries are obtained from the berries of the Schinus Terebinthifolius plant. The term ‘pepper’ is only used for fruit of the Piper Nigrum plant. Pink berries also go by the names ‘Bourbon pepper’, ‘Peruvian pepper’, ‘Chinese coffee’, ‘Brazilian pepper’ and ‘rose pepper’.
