They don't. It feels colder in your hand and on your tongue because it is the cold escaping the vessel at a faster rate than if it were a more insular vessel.

The temperature of water changes much more slowly than that of air. Because of this, water in lakes is usually significantly colder than the ambient air surrounding it. The colder temperatures of the water will lower the air temperature in the immediate vicinity. (much in the same way of how it feels if you stand in front of an open refrigerator).
