In 2025, millions of people are resolving to drink better by participating in Dry January and SodaStream launched the Tips for Sips program to support—and reward—their efforts. To help consumers make better drinking choices in the new year, SodaStream is offering people the money they would have tipped a bartender for every mocktail they prepare at home with a SodaStream.
This twist on tipping culture is taking place throughout Dry January, from the 7th to the 31st, and for every sparkling non-alcoholic beverage made with a SodaStream sparkling water maker, program participants have the potential to earn tips of $5.
SodaStream is serving up tons of delicious, non-alcoholic drink recipes on social media, appealing to fans who want the fizz, the refreshment, and all the flavor without the buzz.
