Technically, you do burn more calories in the heat. However, it comes with a major drawback.
When exercising in hot weather or deliberately overheating your body, such as by wearing heavy clothing, you’ll naturally sweat more to cool your body. Though you may see a drop in body weight after a workout, it’s almost all due to a loss of water weight.
Keep in mind that your body can easily acclimatize to new environments. While you may initially burn more calories if you’re not used to working in the heat, your body will adapt and gradually require less effort and calories to cool your body.
Also, consider your tolerance to exercising in the heat. If you don’t enjoy it or can only sustain it for short periods, you may be better off exercising in a cooler environment you enjoy so you can exercise for longer periods at a greater intensity.
All in all, you only burn a few more calories in the heat, you’re best off choosing exercise you enjoy and can sustain in the long term.
