"Although it is not a true pepper (Piper), its dried berries are often sold as pink peppercorns. The seeds can be used as a spice, if used in moderation, adding a pepper-like taste to food. They are usually sold in a dry state and have a bright pink color. They are less often sold pickled in brine, where they have a dull, almost green hue." So basically, you pick the peppercorns off the tree and let them sit out until they shrivel up and then they can be ground just like black pepper.
P.S. "Be careful though, Brazilian pepper has aromatic sap that can cause skin reactions (similar to poison-ivy burns) in some sensitive people."
It should be noted that pickled pink peppercorns can be either from the pepper tree OR they can be true peppercorns. Peppercorns that have been allowed to fully ripen are also pink in hue, but they are so fragile that you usually only find them pickled or brined. These will have a very different flavor than pink peppercorns from a pepper tree (Pepper trees are either the Peruvian Schinus molle or its cousin, Schinus terebinthifolius).

Both black & white pepper originate from the same source. They come from the peppercorns of the plant pepper nigrum. The difference is in the way they are harvested. Black pepper comes from peppercorns that are harvested when green & allowed to dry in the sun until they blacken. White pepper comes from peppercorns that are allowed to ripen fully before picking & then are soaked in water to remove the outer hull.
