Here’s a plot twist for you: making hot coffee into iced coffee might actually be better for you. A study found that cold brewing (which mimics this process) extracts less acidic compounds than hot brewing. That means your stomach won’t scream at you for ordering a second glass. Also, the antioxidants? Still there. You are basically drinking a health potion that tastes like a breakfast rebellion.
But wait—there’s more. Drinking iced coffee may boost your metabolism slightly more than hot coffee because your body has to work to warm it up. It’s like doing a tiny, lazy sit-up with every sip. You’re welcome, muscle gains.
