*From Delish

Your four favorite ladies have gone tropical! The stars of The Golden Girls are embracing the warm weather in their Miami home with new tiki mugs. It goes without saying, but they’re the only dishware we’ll be drinking out of this summer.

The fun cups come from Beeline Creative as part of its Geek Tikis line. You have Dorothy Zbornak (Bea Arthur) in green, Rose Nylund (Betty White) in yellow, Blanche Devereaux (Rue McClanahan) in red, and Sophia Petrillo (Estelle Getty) in blue. The detail is pretty awesome, and you can tell which woman is which. Just look at Blanche’s long strand of pearls and Sophia’s glasses!

You can shop the Dorothy, Rose, Blanche, and Sophia mugs individually, but we all know that’s like picking a favorite child, so it’s a good thing you can get the entire set. The tiki mugs are $25.99 each, but the set of four costs $98.99 at Target. Hey, they’re ceramic! Keep in mind that these are only available online, so you won’t find them on your next Target run.

Each mug holds 16 to 18 ounces, depending on the style, and they’re top-shelf dishwasher- and microwave-safe. They’re built to last, according to the brand, so it looks like it’ll last you through many The Golden Girls marathons to come!

All that’s left to do is figure out what drink is going in the tiki mugs first. Is anyone else thinking that some sort of cheesecake cocktail is in order?!*
