  2. I have heard that the temperature people feel delicious is 70℃ when they have a cup of tea. It is difficult to avoid the risk of cancer and to enjoy tea time.

    In Japan, the elder also said that when you feel hot, such as it is summer, you should have warm tea, not iced tea. The reason is iced tea makes our body cool down. I hope it is helpful for your dicision.

    I agree with you. In summer,you should drink tea or water but not with ice because the temperature in your body is 37c. It is hot if you drink with ice.You may get cold because your body can not adjust.
