Increase the speed to medium-high and blend until smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula if necessary, about 1-2 minutes.

The milkshake should be thick enough to cling to the back of a spoon but still pourable.

Pour the creamy milkshake into two chilled tall glasses.

Sprinkle the freshly crushed pink peppercorns evenly over the top of each milkshake, distributing their visual appeal and subtle spice.

Crown each milkshake generously with a swirl of whipped cream.
