Posted: 08/23/2012

CLEVELAND - It’s a fall staple for coffee lovers—the Pumpkin Spice Latte. Now, Clevelanders have the chance to be the first city in the country to get the coveted Starbucks drink early.

Starbucks is sponsoring a Facebook challenge for coffee lovers to push for the chance to claim the Pumpkin Spice Latte crown.

Last year, Chicago was the big winner, but Starbucks said they’ve leveled the playing field so the most “pumpkin-passionate” city wins, regardless of size.

Contestants can earn points for their city by tweeting and sharing on Facebook here: on.wews.com/PIZnpC
