Summer’s almost here, which means rising temperatures, and with them, a constant craving for cool, refreshing beverages. And thanks to a current offer from Panera, you can get two months of free drinks this summer. Here’s what to know.
How to get two months of free drinks at Panera
First, you should know that this offer is only valid for new members of Panera’s Unlimited Sip Club, so if you’re already a subscriber, you’ll need to find a workaround. But for everyone else, the free drinks deal basically amounts to a free two-month trial of their monthly beverage subscription program.
Here’s how to claim the offer:
Become a member of their MyPanera loyalty program, if you aren’t already.Register for a subscription to Panera’s Unlimited Sip Club.Cancel your subscription before the end of the second month.If you don’t cancel your subscription before your second month of free drinks comes to a close—or, if you decide you’d like to keep it—the card you used to register will be charged $11.99 (plus tax) per month. You can also opt to subscribe by the year, which costs $119.99 (plus tax): a savings of 17% over the course of the year.
How to claim your free drinks
Once you’re enrolled in the Unlimited Sip Club, you can get a free drink—including unlimited refills—once every two hours during normal bakery-cafe business hours. You can order these drinks in-store, at PaneraBread.com, and through the Panera app.
The beverages included in an Unlimited Sip Club subscription include: Drip hot coffee, iced coffee, hot tea, fountain soda beverages, bubbler drinks (regular, sweet, and Passion Papaya green iced teas, and Agave Lemonade), and Charged Lemonade beverages (Fuji Apple Cranberry, Mango Citrus Yuzu, and Strawberry Lemon Mint).
The subscription does not include any other drinks, like bottled beverages, smoothies, frozen blended drinks, cold brew iced coffee, and espresso and cappuccino beverages.
Customizations—like adding espresso or syrups (like Madagascar vanilla, bittersweet chocolate, cinnamon, and caramel) to your drink—are not included in the subscription, so upcharges will apply. The usual coffee and tea fixings—like milk, skim milk, almond milk, half & half, and sweeteners—are included.
You can find the other terms and conditions for the offer on Panera’s website.
