In this context, radiation refers to thermal radiation. Nearly everything in the universe radiates thermally in the form of infrared "light". When something is hotter, it radiates more. All of this radiation has some energy associated with it, which comes from the thermal energy in the object. In the case of a hot drink, more energy is leaving the drink through radiation than is being absorbed.

Does a warm drink cool you down more than a cold on a hot day?

Drinking a warm drink can help regulate your body temperature by inducing sweat, which can actually cool you down more than a cold drink because it triggers your body's natural cooling mechanisms. Cold drinks can cause a temporary sensation of coolness, but they may not have as strong of an effect on your body's overall temperature regulation.


Why does thermos keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold?

A thermos keeps hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold by using a vacuum layer between two walls of the container. This vacuum layer prevents heat transfer by conduction, convection, and radiation. The result is that hot drinks stay hot because heat loss is minimized, and cold drinks stay cold because heat gain is minimized.
