ELI5: Why do cold drinks tend to taste better than warm drinks?

Cold drinks as in water, soda, iced tea, etc. Not coffee, hot cocoa, etc.

You're culturally conditioned to prefer them. There are other parts of the world (China for instance) where many prefer warm water over cold, and will find that more refreshing as well. 

Culture is a ridiculously powerful force, and explains a lot of things that we mistakenly assume to be common to all humans.
