I’ve had the same experience. Mine was from acid reflux. I couldn’t drink cold drinks without problems too. I took acid reflux meds for a couple years then developed such a wheezing with cough that I had to stop the medication. I couldn’t figure out why my nebulizer treatments weren’t working. Going off the medicine helped. I even cough less.
As a result I have to watch what I drink or eat. I do think drinking 3 liters helps along with airway clearance.

@ainekrech One gastroenterologist said I had Acid Reflux, due to finding a lesion he felt was caused by the acid reflux, after the colonoscopy. He wanted me on a PPI but I chose not to start it.
Then a year later I had been told I don't have Acid Reflux after the 24 hour Acid Reflux Test with catheter and monitor.
I believe I have LPR, Silent Reflux . I have not taken medications for LPR or GERD.
Eating and drinking liquids causes me mucus which I am nearly clearing all day long. I am nearly eating all day long to keep my weight on or in trying to gain more weight.

I am curious what you have found, for yourself, what foods/drinks you feel you have to watch.
Glad you posted.
