Want to enjoy unlimited iced coffees, lemonades and fountain drinks this summer? Then you'll want to check out this crazy deal from Panera Bread. Sign up for a subscription to the Unlimited Sip Club today, May 18, and you'll get free drinks from now through July 4. (That's right -- this offer expires today.)

Once you're signed up through MyPanera, you can redeem the offer in store, at PaneraBread.com and through the Panera app. Just add an eligible beverage and it'll be deducted at checkout. You can read the full list of included beverages below. Note that Unlimited Sip Club doesn't include frozen drinks or fancy crafted coffee beverages -- and there's an upcharge if you want to add a shot of espresso or flavor syrup. Membership doesn't include bottled drinks, either.

Membership also includes free delivery for the month of June, so you won't even need to visit Panera to get your summer drink fix.

This Panera offer is, essentially, a free trial of Unlimited Sip Club. You'll pay nothing if you cancel by July 4. If you want to remain a member of Unlimited Sip Club, your card will be charged $11.99 per month for unlimited drinks thereafter.

If you're thinking about taking advantage, click the button below and do so now. This free trial offer expires today.
