>Drinking water appears to stimulate thermogenesis, or heat production, in the body, particularly when it's chilled. The body has to expend energy to warm the fluid to body temperature, and the more energy expended by your body, the faster your metabolism
We did the math on the "ice cube diet" in high school physics; the energy required to melt the ice was only a few calories. Not the Kilocalories listed on food labels- actual calories 1/1000th of that unit.
If there's an effect here, it's not from heating the water.
