I recently had the pleasure of indulging in two refreshing treats: of matcha ice cream and a fresh raspberry orange drink—and together, they made for a surprisingly perfect pair.
Matcha Ice Cream: Smooth, earthy, and just the right amount of sweet. The matcha flavor was bold and authentic, with that subtle bitterness that true matcha lovers crave. The texture was velvety and creamy, melting slowly and evenly on the tongue. It left a cool, calming aftertaste that lingered pleasantly.
Fresh Raspberry Orange Drink: Talk about vibrant! This drink was a burst of sunshine in a glass. The sweetness of the ripe oranges balanced beautifully with the tart pop of fresh raspberries. It tasted like summer, with a natural fruitiness and a hint of citrus zest. Refreshing, energizing, and not overly sugary—a total win.
Together: Sipping the drink between bites of the matcha ice cream was unexpectedly delightful. The zesty, fruity drink cut through the richness of the ice cream, creating a balanced contrast that kept both flavors feeling fresh and exciting.
Final Verdict: A beautiful pairing of East meets West: the serene depth of matcha paired with the bright, juicy zing of berries and citrus. Whether you're craving something refreshing or indulgent—this combo hits both notes just right.

This is a Chinese dessert and drink store, therefore the taste will be considerably distinct and no where close to what is expected. The place however is extremely popular, therefore almost all times in the evenings there is a large queue. The store is small, yet very well decorated. Since this is only a take out store therefore the menu has been displayed on the walls of the store as well as above the ordering counter. The menu is descriptive of what will be included in the item being ordered. The order is placed from the front entrance of the shop, while the order is delivered from outside on the right side of the shop. The serving time is usually around 10 minutes after placing the order. They have set up a very standing tables for customers to place their drinks and ice creams, yet mostly take away is the option. They only accept payment through cash, debit card, or bank transfers and credit card are not accepted at this store. The store is located in an extremely busy commercial area, with free street parking, that is very difficult to find...
Read moreWe Drink in I-8 Markaz is a refreshing new addition to Islamabad’s beverage scene, bringing in trendy boba tea options at very economical prices. The flavors are well-balanced, enjoyable, and definitely hit the spot for anyone craving bubble tea without breaking the bank. It's a great hangout spot for quick takeaways or casual meetups, and their approach to keeping prices low while still offering a good variety of drinks is commendable.
However, there is slight room for improvement when it comes to consistency. On a few occasions, the drinks had ingredients different from what was listed on the menu — possibly substituted with what was available at the time. While not a major issue, it can affect expectations. Overall, We Drink is a promising place for boba lovers looking for good taste and value, and with a bit more attention to menu accuracy, it can become a...
