That's the thing ... I'm up in northern Ontario in Canada where we can get -40 degree weather in February. The winter is probably the only time I'll prefer big cups of hot coffee .... only because I want to drink lots of hot liquid to keep me warm .... but even then I regulate how much I drink because it is really a big pain to drink lots of drip coffee, get outside in cold temperatures bundled up in pants, jeans, long underwear, jackets, shirts, belts and then have the urge to pee!!!!
