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.

Chocolate recovery

Tastes ok but I am not one to use recovery mixes too often. I may try the other flavors.

It Works...I think

I started using the Chocolate recovery mix during a four-day ride along the Rhein River from Bonn to Karlsruhe, Germany, during a heat wave. While I didn't see any fireworks per se, I was able to get back on the bike the next day and complete the ride.Yes I will be using this product again in the future.

Vegan Recovery

I’ve used the vegan recovery mix post workout & longrun to make sure I get the nutrition I need immediately & before my next meal. It’s worked great with Oatmilk, banana & ice blended into a smoothie if I want something a little more substantial. But it’s also worked great with just oatmilk

Just right

Some mixes are too thick, some are too thin. Some are too bland, some too sweet. Like most Skratch products this mix is just right. Perfect shaken with water at the end of a ride. Mixes well, no clumps and makes me feel like I’m ready to go and do the ride all over again.

Simply delicious!

Has become my routine post ride drink! Tastes amazing with no unfavorable aftertaste. Throw in a scoop if peanut butter powder for that extra little flavor boost!

Love the horchata

I love the horchata flavor. I like to mix the drink powder with milk or water and leave it in the fridge before going out on my run, so that it's nice and cold when I come back. Has a great taste and makes me feel like I'm doing something to help improve my recovery after a hard effort.

Chocolate is delicious and refuels

Skratch chocolate drink is my go-to after bike rides for IM70.3 and olympic distance triathlon training. Tastes great!

Great for recovery but a little messy

Got the horchata mix and it is great after a hard work out at the gym or a long day on the bike. Does help me feel better the next and faster recovery for the muscles. Only thing is the scoop, I think is larger than the other scoops I use for the fuel mixes and every day mixes. It is hard to get all powder in the bottle, I use a funnel to help. Love the product! Maybe I need a bottle with a more open mouth?

Perfect refuel

I've been using this mix for over a year, I buy the vegan one. Mixes well, chocolate flavor is drinkable, I feel just a bit more recovered and refueled for the next day!

Tasty Horchata
