It will soon be possible to combine retro gaming and the classic cocktail, with the development of a techy ice cube tray.
Icetris will allow bargain code hunters to add all their favourite Tetris shapes to their favourite cocktail.
Like the original computer game Icetris is a Russian invention, created by Dima Komissarov for the design site Mystake.
The retro ice cube trays are currently just a concept, but many leading tech-websites believe they will be a sure-fire hit.
Russian programmer Alexey Pajitnov designed Tetris in 1985, and the game is available on virtually every computer platform.
According to documentary maker Magnus Temple, who investigated Tetris for the BBC in a film called Tetris: From Russia With Love, the development of Tetris was linked to the cold war.
In an interview with BBC 4 he said: "To me, more than anything else I've ever looked at, it's really a game for its time."
"Everything about its development links so closely into that era's political and economic context," he added.
