Our friends at Notes On A Party suggest surprising your gracious hosts with a set of monogrammed coasters to keep their minty mojitos from leaving their mark post-party.  available with two or three letter monograms or up to 32 characters, you can personalize the glass coasters in a variety of ways. Prices range from $26 for one coaster to $95 for a set of four and comes with a chocolate gift box.
