Drinking hot morning coffee in the hot morning tent

I woke up chilly around dawn, and once earlier than that due to a critter rummaging around my tent, but now that the sun is shining, it's hot in here and I'm sweating.

I tried relaxing with my coffee outside, but there are too many flies at this time of morning.

Breakfast is the usual two cups of coffee (iced would be better), granola, almonds, and apricots. Plus an instant electrolyte-replacement drink. And lots of water.

I would like a bowl of miso soup too, but the idea of consuming even more hot liquid is simply not inviting.
