    I know, I understood your last post. Since I aim for 4 cups a day, that would mean I would only be getting 31 calories burned drinking cold water. And even less with warm water.

    I prefer to drink room temp water but I was told to drink ice cold water.

    From googling it, it sounds like the calorie-burning difference is negligible. "Drinking eight ounces of cold water can burn off an additional 9.25 calories as compared to room-temperature water" ... and such.

    Drink it how you like. I prefer it room temperature. Granted, room temperature in Germany isn't the same thing as room temperature in California and some other places.

    Hot water or tea aids in your digestion after eating a meal. Cold water makes your body burn more energy. But it's not a large amount. Personally I like room temp water best..

    The one you'll drink. ;)

    I prefer cold water so I tend to drink more of it.
