Drinking cold things is the wrong way to go. Discomfort is caused by the large difference in body temperature to the ambient temperature. Hot drinks raise body temperature closer to the ambient therefore decreasing discomfort.

Travel around in the Middle East and you will always see people taking tea or coffee.
