There are benefits to both, depending on the situation.

During exercise the core body temperature becomes elevated. Sweating is one mechanism that our bodies use to cool down, but we lose a lot of water and electrolytes which need to be replenished. Sipping on cold water during a workout both rehydrates the body of lost water and helps to cool down the core body temperature.

Drinking cold water has been to shown to boost metabolism and help burn an additional 70 calories per day. Because your body has to heat water to a certain temperature before absorbing it.

Best Times to Drink Warm or Hot Water
Drinking warm water in the morning helps to stimulate digestion. Drinking cold water with a meal can have adverse effects on the digestive process. It requires more energy from the body to warm up cool liquids and foods, thus taking a longer time to digest and assimilate.

Drinking warm water when you’re constipated can help to move things along. The main cause of constipation is dehydration, so it’s essential to consume extra amounts of liquids. Warm water helps to stimulate blood flow and has a more soothing effect in the intestines than cold water.

Could be? I went to a Chinese restaurant in the US & they only had hot tea, no ice tea. I asked for a glass of ice & poured the tea into it. Ice tea.
I don't know why they didn't think of that for their customers. Hot tea is free. They could make more money serving ice tea.

Drinking water that is between cold and warm is supposedly the best temperature. I prefer water cold, like fresh-out-of-the-fridge cold.
