Coffee makes you stay awake because it contains caffeine, which is a sort of "stimulant" that makes the brain and body stay active and awake. For me, I also don't drink coffee very often, but when I do, I prefer to drink iced coffee. I am a big fan of cold drinks, and I always choose cold drinks compared to hot ones. I don't really know why I prefer cold drinks, but cold drinks has a more "wholesome" sort of feeling in quenching thirst than hot drinks, and they also have a better sort of effect on the mouth. Hot drinks on the other hand don't really have a nice effect of quenching thirst, and we always have to wait for it to cool down a bit before getting to drink it. So, cold drinks all the way for me.......

i agree,but during cold weather, its really nice to sip hot coffee cause of the warm effect that balances the body temperature.

It always depends on the weather for me. If it is colder weather outside then I tend to go for a hot cup of coffee since it wakes me up but also warms me up. If it is the summer time, or just warmer weather outside, I order a nice cup of iced coffee, my favorite is a carmelmacchiato from Starbucks or the Caramel latte from Dunkin Donuts. On a daily basis though I usually have hot coffee at least in the morning at work, since that is all we have at work and I don't have the time to put it into the fridge and cool it off to have some iced coffee, and the few times I did that at work, I got so busy that I forgot it was even in there.

I love hot coffee (espresso) in the morning, but I have iced coffee every night before I go to bed. I LOVE iced coffee ... it's my very favourite drink.

I have tried cold coffee before but I never developed a taste for it. I prefer hot coffee may it be summer or cool season. For me, its more refreshing than cold coffee.
