Is black tea soaked in hot water or cold water?

Hot water.

Because hot water enters the stomach, it will accelerate the contraction of the stomach wall and let it enter the small intestine. Cold water needs to wait about 40 minutes to be absorbed by the small intestine. I think drinking hot tea is more beneficial.

Making tea in cold water is more conducive to the release of nutrients in tea, but not every kind of tea is more suitable for cold water brewing. Especially tea such as black tea which has been fermented for a long time. It is best not to brew with cold water.
