No need to miss it; my student mates got in the way of coming to my room for the best tea going (Ceylon), with music and chat into the small hours.

Iced tea is great in summer, and hot tea is acceptable in the morning when it is maybe still a bit chilly out, but there is no way to enjoy tea in the heat beyond "oh yah, I'm totally the eurohipster TEA type not the COFFEE type"

It's kind've counter-intuitive, but many people seem to think drinking hot beverages actually cools you down when it's hot. Might be a psychological thing where it tricks your mind into thinking that you're colder than you actually are 'cause of some relative temperature wossname.
Besides that, the English would drink tea on the edge of a volcano. /stereotype.

Emaline, I don't drink hot coffee in the summer any more than I drink hot tea. Iced Coffee and Frappacinos are such a good invention. Of course, its hard to mix in honey with cold tea, so I may have to initially make it hot enough to just melt the honey, then add ice, and either lemon or milk.

Yeah, all of the 'old people' I know (parents and grandparents) always drink tea when it's hot, saying it 'cools them down,' which I never understood but hey! It is what they do!
Also with our blistering summers, a hot cup of tea probably seems pretty cool. I still drink tea in summer, of course, I have since I was very small, but only in the morning and late at night when it is a bit cooler. Or I'm somewhere that's air-conditioned to a comfy cool 23-ish C.
