Què, et mulles?
As the sentence is found in an advert the message must be straightforward, get the reader's attention and "new" -something they have not seen/read/identified before. Not knowing the product the headline refers to makes it real hard to be even more precise. I take it for granted it has to do more with diving into the water than dipping a muffin in black coffee, for example. The world of publicity/advertising uses many puns on words, and a picture accompanying the text is what many times helps the reader understand the message conveyed.

et ve de gust?
This would be enough if there is a picture of the drink. If not, "et ve de gust un glop?"

: Es possible que t´hagis confós amb la paraula sip, que sí que vol dir glop... Es una sugerència :)

Et ve de gust una capbussada?
"Dip" vol dir capbussada (un bany al mar o a la piscina) o bé salsa. Depén del contexte.
