Topic starter
 

I want to start making my own protein recovery drink after riding and currently use a version of a recipe from 'Nigella Express':

300ml of milk, a banana, 4tsp of choc ovaltine, 1tsp of camp coffee and a scoop of H&B 90% soya protein.

Should I increase the milk to say 500ml on 2 hour + rides and an extra scoop of protein? Anything else I should add like HMB or ribose from TORQ?

Was going to do a bit of research but thought a few people round here will have already done the hard work.

life's too short for all that faff... For goodness shakes powders do the job after a big day out, not after every ride

Choco milkshake - proven to be as good as anything else IIRC.
