Specific heat is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a given mass of matter by a certain amount. Water requires 1 calorie of heat to raise the temperature of 1 gram by 1 degree centigrade. It's specific heat is 1. Ice has a specific heat of about 0.5, meaning that it would only require about 1/2 calorie to raise the temp of 1 gram of ice by 1 degree C. Coffee has a higher specific heat, regardless of whether it is hot or cold.
