Beverage giant Coca-Cola is releasing a new bottle for its iconic soda made completely of ice.

So far, it is only being sold on some beaches in Colombia, but a news release from Coca-Cola implies it may be appearing in other countries soon.

The bottle is shaped like the classic Coca-Cola bottles, but it's made by "pouring micro-filtered water into silicone molds, then freezing the water to -13 degrees, and filling the molds with Coke."

If the idea of holding a piece of ice doesn't appeal to you, the soda-maker is also including a "red-band" that wraps around the ice to make holding the drink easier.

It's not yet clear if the "ice" bottles will be available in the U.S.
