Couldn't pause long enough to take a picture with it full because I drank it all between the register and the car.

How long does a ride have to be to qualify for a “recovery drink”? For context I did a metric century last weekend and I do long rides over 50 miles several times a month. Never did anything special for recovery. Just keep drinking water is all.
Chocolate protein shake milk that has 50g protein and a bunch of sugar. The guy in the shop knows its bike day when I get a energy drink and said bottle of milk
Just one of them?
Ice cold beer.
I dump a tablespoon of instant coffee into my chocolate milk!
Garden of life Raw Meal chocolate. Almost always have one as soon as I finish a ride. Maybe a Coke Zero as well.
I crave cold milk after a long ride, especially when it’s hot out. I can drink a liter in a coupla’ minutes.
Milk is for babies. Literally. Alcohol free wheat beer. ✌🏼
Best cure for the bonk.
An absolutely atrocious amount of tap water
in chile (so i imagine elsewhere, although i’ve not seen it in the uk) there’s a chocolate milk with added oats. it’s not oat milk, but real milk made thicker. and it’s gorgeous.
Gazpacho
Ice cold Starbucks Mocha Frappucino in a bottle, nothing like it after a hot weather ride!
IPA

Same thing here, in Serbia we have these protein shakes in many different flavours, available in basically all shops. These are my saving grace on long rides and I can get them on basically any route I take.
Coconut water!!
I was hard on the coconut water for a while. It’s like magic for recovery.
Breakfast burrito. Wait what was the question?
