Hi,
The best rule as per medical science is drink water before start eating any thing.
Yes it is true that drinking cold water after eating is bad for the digestion. If you want to drink than use hot water or tea/ coffee.

Drinking water immediately after eating itself is bad and drinking cold water chills the stomach and reduces the secretion of gastric juices and digestive enzymes, thus slowing down the digestion. So, minimise your water intake before, during and after meals.

drinking cold water slows down metabolism therefore it takes more time for our body to digest foods -- it also makes us more tired and sleepy, millions of Americans feel like having a little nap after meals mainly because of that

water after eating is good for digestion and temp doesn't matter. It is good for you. dont worry. I helps your food go through easier. Enjoy that tall cool glass of water, or if it makes you feel better a nice cup of warm water with herbal tea.
