If not, the pleasure of drinking hot liquids is lost on me, never been a fan, not even hot chocolate, as a kid I'd make sure to put some ice cubes in it to cool it down.
The above said, I have enjoyed warm tea on occasion (especially in Istanbul) and like you wondered why I don't enjoy it more often, it couldn't be easier to make seeing as we have a hot water dispenser in the house.
I used to be that way, only wanting cold tea and other drinks. Then, while teaching English in China, everyday someone would come around to teachers desks' and place warm yoghurt and every now and then, a lukewarm cup of water on the table. The A/C was never on cool. The inside of the airplane was never cool. Iced tea in a restaurant was a more foreign concept than well, a foreigner asking for iced tea.
So I adapted. But back in the US, it's all about the ice.
