Here's what's helped me, in order of my perceived importance:

Lots of singing, both printed music and off the top of my head

Singing my etudes, especially shorts bits of them which may have less
familiar intervals

Transposing

Long tones

Imagining what music I hear looks like when it's written

Analyzing music I hear and music I see on the page

Teaching beginning music theory

Listening to opera
