At least I have a Trader Vic's and South London Pacific within 50 miles of where I live. Although that's pretty much it. I've tried explaining Tiki to some people but it mainly gets a blank reaction. Pretty much like me being into rockabiily/R&B, people just think you're odd (which suits me). I had a Luau/BBQ this summer and forced a few people into trying a few cocktails. I don't have many tiki mugs, well 4 actually, so I had what I thought was a good idea. I got some coconuts, drilled two holes into the top and poured off the milk. Filled the nut with the potent rum mixtures (via a funnel), popped a straw in and hey presto a Trader- Kon coconut mug.
