I just don't see why some people would want to drink hot tea still on a hot summer day. I just couldn't have a hot drink for it especially during my meal. I would rather have a cold soda to cool me down. I knew tea is healthy, but I just couldn't wait for it to be cool down. Mostly, my mom wants me to drink some hot tea, and abandon the cold soda, because during the summer time, I would drink 2 - 3 cold soda at least a day. She rather want me to drink those hot herbal tea. What about you, can you drink those hot tea during summer day?

Hi. kingparker. If I am outside when it is very hot, I will never drink any hot tea at all. I may drink hot tea if my menstrual cycle comes on and I don't feel so well then. This is only when I am inside of the house when the cool air is on. I love drinking herbal tea, especially when I don't feel too well. But it is only when I have a fan on and my Central Air on too.

I'm not very fond of hot liquids in general, especially during summer! I definitely prefer iced coffee and iced tea. But as far as soda goes, I try to limit myself to maybe once or twice a week. Soda is really bad for the body...

I lived on a sailboat for years without refrigeration and learned to drink everything at room temperature or just cool. I do not drink hot drinks except in the winter. I get very cold in winter and have difficulty warming up, so hot drinks then are a big help. I have a disorder that prevents me from perspiring so I cannot cool down easily so I never drink hot drinks in summer. Especially since I live in a hot and humid climate.

I don't drink hot tea in the heat of a day but before bed I do like a couple cups of hot tea to unwind and just knit or read a good book with.
Maybe try iced tea. there are many kinds and its a lot better for you than sodas.
the tea is getting water in you to hydrate you too.
My girlfriend drinks all her tea hot I really don't think she drinks anything cold. Just a habit I guess of what you do.

I can't stand it either, the thought of it already make me sweaty. It's hot these days. If I drink hot tea, I probably look like just gotten out from sauna. Cold tea of juice would be nice. If not, just water will do. My sister in law got that habit of drinking hot or warm tea most of the time. I don't know how she handle it.
