It turns out that certain foods and beverages, even though consumed at high temperatures, have a cooling effect on our bodies — or seem to do so. While hot tea, for example, does raise the body’s core temperature (and iced tea lowers it), we humans regulate that core temperature in order to keep it a steady 98.6 degrees.
