It depends on the sore throat. Back when I perpetually got tonsillitis, I always wanted something cold; but when I get strep, warm is much better. I haven't figured out the others yet, but I never want both warm and cold for the same sore throat. I'm not sure why different temperatures soothe different causes, though.

very hot tea

When I have a sore throat, I usually take an aspirin and drink something cold. Cold just makes it feel better. Of course, I do not have very many hot drinks, period.

Very cold, like ice cream.

Warm drink. Cold ones would make things worse.., for I already have tonsillitis.

Cold drinks. Usually something hot to eat, like soup.

When i have a sore throat i always have to have ice cold drinks and warm food
by DukeG on March 12th, 2009
It all depends if you have a cold or the flu. If im running a temp I want something cold to drink. If I have a cold and Im all achy, I want something warm. so your all sort of correct.

For me its warm
cold always seems to hurt more

If I have nasal congestion and a headache along with the sore throat, I'll have hot tea with lemon and honey.

I like could. I only recently found out that my grandmother's "medicine" for a sore throat was gin in orange juice.
We were little kids and grandma's giving us screwdrivers. Drink up, it's good for you.
I never liked gin because I thought it tasted like medicine. I guess it is.

cold

For me, that would depend on why my throat was sore. If it were caused by a virus, I'd probably want something warm to hot; however, if it were caused from something else (e.g., yelling at a sporting event), then I'd want something cool to cold.
