Most people don't read it as \"peppery\" — they just notice the syrup has more depth than a standard cranberry mixer. It's the same idea as adding pepper to strawberries or a dash of cayenne to chocolate: the peppercorn brings out the brightness of the fruit and rounds out the spice profile.

A traditional bamboo whisk (chasen) works too.
