recover faster than using either carbs or protein alone

  • New Flavor! There’s nothing better than some nostalgia with your recovery. We elevated a childhood favorite by putting the Skratch real fruit spin on strawberry milk. Our Strawberries + Cream Recovery Sport Drink Mix has a fresh, velvety burst of strawberries and complete milk protein for a delicious way to rapidly refuel, rehydrate and rebuild.

    The fastest way to recover when all your cookies have been spent.

    Recovery Sport Drink Mix is designed to rapidly refuel, rehydrate, and rebuild you when you’re completely empty after your longest and hardest workouts.

    It’s for those times when you’re totally cooked and you don’t have a personal chef to hand you a burrito or the time to make one yourself. It’s not designed for recovering after an easy stroll around the neighborhood or for getting swole. But, if you accidentally do get swole, make sure to post pictures on Instagram.

    Technically, our Recovery Sport Drink Mix is a 4 to 1 ratio of carbohydrate to protein, that’s designed to bring your blood sugar up fast. This causes the hormone insulin to spike, which is key to getting the sugar, electrolytes, fat, and protein in our Recovery Sport Drink Mix back into muscle fast. Basically, our Recovery Mix is really sweet milk* – like chocolate milk, but without a tongue-twisting list of excess ingredients and with a more optimized macronutrient profile for restoring muscle glycogen (aka, refueling).

    But, the real magic is that our Recovery Sport Drink Mix actually tastes great. So great, that you might want to drink it all the time. The problem is that while there’s a scientific rationale for the high amount of sugar we use, it’s not an amount that’s healthy to consume if you just sat on your butt all day. 

    Also, we know milk bends some people because they’re lactose intolerant, so we’ve added lactase to digest all the milk sugar.* We also know that after a super hard workout, your gut can be pretty fubarred, so we also added the probiotic bacillus coagulans 30 to make things better.

    And ya, it’s non-GMO, Kosher, vegetarian, and gluten free.

     *Vegan Chocolate flavor does not contain dairy.   

  • Chocolate: cane sugar, whole milk, nonfat milk, dextrose, cocoa powder, cocoa extract, lactase, salt, Bacillus coagulans GBI-30 6086 (probiotic).

    Strawberries + Cream: cane sugar, whole milk, nonfat milk, strawberry juice powder, dextrose, vanilla extract, lactase, salt, citric acid, Bacillus coagulans GBI-30 6086 (probiotic).

    Horchata: cane sugar, whole milk, nonfat milk, rice flour, dextrose, vanilla extract, cinnamon, lactase, salt, Bacillus coagulans GBI-30 6086 (probiotic).

    +Probiotic BC30: 1 billion active cultures per serving. BC30 supports an overall healthy digestive system, healthy immune system, and enhances protein utilization. Not all probiotic strains are the same - BC30 delivers live cells 10 times more effectively than common probiotic yogurts.

    Allergens: Contains milk from rBGH/rBST free cows.*

    *No significant difference has been shown between milk derived from rBST-treated and non-rBST treated cows.

    Vegan Chocolate: cane sugar, dextrose, pea protein, medium chain triglycerides (derived from coconut), cocoa powder, rice protein, cocoa extract, gum acacia, salt, vanilla extract, Bacillus coagulans GBI-30 6086 (probiotic)

  • To prepare: simply add one serving (2 scoops or one packet) to 12 fl oz of water and shake (don't stir).

  • Our Recovery Mix is intended for use immediately after exercise, especially when that bout of exercise leaves you feeling hungry, when you don't have a meal made from scratch readily available, and when you want to fast track the recovery process.

    Because our Recovery Mix is a whole food product made with only real natural ingredients, you can also use it when your metabolism is on the fast track and when you're so hungry that you're being a menace to yourself and others.

Love the chocolate!

I regularly drink the chocolate recovery. I have tried the vegan chocolate also. It doesn’t mix quite as well, slightly chalky but definitely tolerable if you want the vegan version.

Best recovery shake around

Perfect blend of carbs, protein and electrolytes to fuel recovery. It's the first thing I do when I get home from any ride over 50 mi. Sometimes I blend with a banana or PB2 powder. Highly recommended.

Try them all, and try them hot!!

I love the flavor of all of these, for some reason I do get a little bit of bubble guts after drinking the strawberry, not sure why only this flavor. During the winter, my absolute favorite way to drink the Recovery Mix is the to combine it with hot espresso/coffee and a little warmed water, almond milk, or other hot milk of choice. I get chilled after long, cold, wet rides, and Recovery served hot is just the ticket to feeling great again!

My Go-To Recovery Shake

I use Skratch Chocolate recovery after the majority of my workouts. It tastes good, and gets the re-fueling process started.

I've tried them all

Huge fan of this product. It mixes easily with water or a bit of oat milk, and tastes great.

After a longer or higher intensity run this hits the spot. I usually run in the PMs so it's great to get some carbs and protein in right in after my run. This way I don't have to wait until I'm done making dinner.

If I had to rank the flavors I would say chocolate > horchata > strawberry.

Delicious

I love this stuff. I want to drink it all the time, which really motivates me to have a glass after a run or strength workout. I just ran my fastest mile and 2 miles in years and beat a bunch of kids younger than me. Is it because I love Skratch Labs Recovery Sport Drink Mix? Maybe.
