The Great Recovery Mix Reformulation

• 20g of complete, plant-based protein helps rebuild muscle and reduce fatigue with a blend of rice, fermented fava, and BCAAs—optimized for absorption and smooth taste.

• Balanced carbs and electrolytes support rapid glycogen replenishment and rehydration post-exercise, using real sugar (not artificial sweeteners) for better absorption and taste.

• Convenient and versatile, mixes easily with water—no blender required—and comes in single-serve packs perfect for training, racing, or life on the go.

• Effective recovery timing: Drinking within 30–60 minutes post-workout maximizes muscle repair and energy restoration, helping you bounce back stronger for your next session.

Our new recovery drink has more protein and perfectly balanced carbohydrates and electrolytes so your body can rebuild itself after every workout—making you stronger, faster, and ready to go for that next hard session.

Feeling sluggish for hours after a workout? Suffering from heavy legs the day after a hard session? Paying for every big effort with muscle soreness that limits your movement? These are all telltale signs you’re missing out on some key recovery nutrition.

There’s a magic window within 30-60 minutes of every workout where your body is primed for replenishing the nutrients and energy we’ve used up. Once that window closes, we’re essentially delaying recovery—leading to all the classic symptoms noted above. On the flip side, nail your recovery in this golden hour and you just may surprise yourself with how much more you’re capable of. 

We’re so diehard when it comes to recovery, we’ve been working on a reformulation of our beloved Recovery Mix, incorporating the latest research in recovery to bring you a smoother, more satisfying drink you’ll actually crave—and your body will thank you for it.

What to expect from the new formulation:

• More protein, from sustainable sources. We’ve upped the protein content to 20 grams per serving, so you can maximize muscle protein synthesis, repairing tissue and rebuilding strength. Utilizing a combination of rice, fava and BCAAs—essential amino acids for reducing muscle fatigue—you get a complete (and completely vegan) protein in every scoop. Fava, an amazingly environmentally friendly and clean source of protein, is fermented before being added to the mix to make it more bio-available and smoother going down, not to mention hypoallergenic. 

• Carbohydrates from (real) sugar to maximize glycogen replenishment and minimize fatigue. Like most busy athletes, your day likely requires more than couch time post workout. With a perfect carbohydrate blend of glucose and fructose, our recovery mix turns you around quickly, so you can get back to life with the same energy stores you brought to your workout. Bonus: leaving out the fake sugars and sweeteners some protein mixes use improves absorption and results in a smooth and satisfying taste.

• Optimal electrolytes for rehydration. Not only do we hit all the WHO standards for rehydration with electrolytes, our new mix features the perfect balance of sodium, glucose and water for maximal absorption post exercise, to rehydrate quickly and effectively. 

• Crazy convenient. Don’t have access to a blender, fully stocked kitchen or personal chef? We get it. That’s why we made this recovery drink to mix quickly and easily in water with just a few shakes, and available in single-serving packaging for easy transport when you’re on the go. 

• More flavors. This new formulation is so smooth, it gives us a blank check when it comes to flavor options. Don’t worry, fan favorites like chocolate, vanilla and salted caramel aren’t going anywhere, but you can expect new flavor drops in the future. 

When to use The Recovery Mix

Like we mentioned earlier, this recovery drink is most effective in that hour window post exercise. Here are a few ideal use-cases:

On big training days. Kickstart recovery after exhaustive exercise or hard sessions, so you can train hard again the next day.

When there’s no time to be tired. Drink this post workout to ensure quick recovery and perform at your best in whatever else your day holds. 

During multi-stage events. Replenish and sustain energy during multi-day events or whenever you have a quick turnaround between big efforts.

As an endurance-extension during long events. While we typically recommend this drink for recovery, some athletes like mixing it in for variety during their longest races as an easily-digestible protein source that also has the carbs they need to keep moving forward.
