Tailwind Recovery Mix is a post-workout drink with 20 g of plant-based protein from fava and brown rice, plus BCAAs, carbs from dextrose and cane sugar, and electrolytes. It is vegan, dairy-free, gluten-free and soy-free.
The trade-off with a recovery drink is that it is not a meal. Tailwind recommends drinking it within 30 minutes after exercise, then eating balanced meals with carbs and protein over the next day.
It is for runners, skiers and riders who want a quick, easy recovery after long efforts. Mix three level scoops with 16 oz of water; no blender needed, and it comes out smooth like a milkshake. Tailwind even suggests mixing it with hot water after winter training.
It can be mixed ahead of time but is best the same day, kept cool or cold.
We think it is a great way to refuel after a long day of skinning or a big trail run.
