OriginLate 15th century (in the sense 'sell (alcoholic drink) by retail'): back-formation from tippler1. To tipple was originally to sell alcoholic liquor, not to drink it. It came in the late 15th century from earlier tippler ‘a seller of alcohol’, the source of which is unknown, though it may be related to Norwegian dialect tipla ‘to drip slowly’. Emphasis moved to the drinker towards the end of the 16th century.
