I am from Poland, but it seems that hot tea is a worldwide infestation. There are however some places that are still hot tea free. I was once traveling with my sister through New Mexico (US), and we stopped at some roadside diner. She ordered hot tea ("one cannot properly digest a meal without hot tea!"). The waitress was perplexed by that request and said that she had never heard of such a thing. But she was resourceful and offered to microwave some iced tea. We suggested that she asked the chef how to prepare such an unusual drink. Fortunately, chef heard of the recipe. (I swear that this really happened!)

I guess that must be it! I was always amazed how can people pour near-boiling water down their throats. And what motivates them to slurp in the process? I managed to force my family stop slurping in my presence, but couldn't do the same with my boss.
