Well it would be a great question were it true but it's not. This is one of those "it's so weird it must be true" myths.
Do you turn on your heater in the summer? No. Do sales of hot drinks rise in the summer? No.
We are constantly doing things to offset the temperature changes. Its natural. Having hot showers or drinking hot drinks or turning on our heaters in the summer are not natural.
Having a hot drink in a warm climate will raise the core temperature of the body which will cause the body to start sweating, the sweat will evaporate and thus cool the body down, please bear in mind that the perception of heat is relative to the person feeling the heat.
