OK, regardless of where you live, fall means different things to different folks.  Living in Florida, we don't have the major seasonal weather changes (palm tree fronds don't change colors in fall) as where I grew up. To my Husband, fall means Football, to my kids, it has always meant Halloween around the corner, I always love getting ready for our snowbird season, but anyone who knows me knows I really love coffee, and around this time of year....Pumpkin Spice!!

I take my coffee pretty seriously, and I have found that many others share my fanatical obsession with Pumpkin Spice Coffee, so I put together this helpful guide to help you find Pumpkin Spice (and other Pumpkin Surprise Items) in Naples and Southwest Florida.

 

At the bottom of this article, you won't want to miss my own pumpkin surprise items, and please feel free to share your own.  Cheers!

 

Of course, you can always check out the usual suspects, Starbucks, and Dunkin Donuts (my personal favorite), but you may find a couple surprises in fall lineups around town.
