For myself, I've hosted a number of "tropical" parties in which I've been purchasing actual quality Tiki mugs (from Tiki Farm, etc.) for my friends. Mugs ain't cheap, so only a few are purchased per party. I mark the mugs with their respective names and those mugs are only available for those people, during my "tropical" parties. They stay at my house at all times. Also, so nobody feels left out, I've acquired a number of the generic "Party America" variety.
In addition to the mugs, I've also been giving them little tidbits of Tiki trivia and history at each gathering. So far, everyone I've purchased mugs for are beginning to feel the Tiki vibe.

Anyone else?

I do this as well. I throw a big bash for friends every year, I order special mugs from Holden and have tee shirts made . It has become a regular event with this year being the 5th year. We have about 100 attendees. I have many non tiki friends who now come every year and although they aren't as tiki as we are, they cherish the mugs and the good times.
