Two remarks come to mind here:

1. A great cold brew has so much more flavor to me than hot brewed coffee. It also is significantly less acidic, which helps my stomach a lot.

2. If I ever consider the weather while ordering beverages, I do so strictly to avoid an uncomfortable carrying situation (carrying a cold drink in an even colder environment). My warm bloodedness gives me a lot of agency to drink what I want and not what the weather tells me.

I know taste is subjective, but this really threw me for a loop because I love cold brew. I brew a new pitcher every week, and can use it whenever I need in a variety of drinks. Usually, I just add a little milk in the mornings. I've never had a problem with the taste.

Yeah, there's nothing like a nice espresso mid or post long bike ride on a hot summer day. It's so cliche but it's one of my favorite things.
