		 1 mL (or gram) of water heated 1 degree C is one calorie.  1000 calories = 1 "dietary" Calorie (or Kcal).  So, 1 L of water heated 1 degree is 1 Calorie. 
 
Body tempurature is 37 C.  Cold water is about 4 C.  That's 33 degrees. 
 
Drinking 1 Litre of water thus costs you 33 Calories, unless you where already overheating at the time.
