Winter

Explanation:

When it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere that means that the Southern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun and therefore the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away. The tilt is what determines what angle the sun's energy strikes any given spot on the Earth. The hemisphere that is tilted toward the sun is struck at a more direct angle and therefore will receive more energy.
