Just curious if anyone else has tried this. I asked my DW to pick me up some chocolate milks and some vanilla milks, if she could find any, for after races and long runs. She came home with a chocolate and a vanilla Rockin' Refuel. I thought they were pretty good.

Have not tried....but the dirt poor graduate student version I used to make was 2 scoops dried milk mixed into chocolate milk. "Protein fortified."

When I was training for higher mileage races I liked to do Carnation Instant Breakfast made with lactose-free milk.
Why lactose-free? For the longest time I would have awful gastric issues post-run...I blamed it on the effort. Then I had a lightbulb moment and considered that maybe it was the recovery drink. Changed the milk and had no issues after that.

I've not tried any fancy 'fortified' refuel chocolate milks -- my recovery drink of choice is a glass of plain old lowfat chocolate milk from the supermarket refrigerator. The only downside is perishability, but I prefer the taste to non-refrigerated chocolate milk drinks like Nesquik.

Most of the non-milk recovery drinks I've tried don't taste very good. I think my wife said the Rockin' Refuels were $1.39 each. Seems like a reasonable price.

Have you tried this?
So bittersweet,This tragedyWon't ask for absolution;This melody,Inside of me,Still searches for solution.A twist of faith,A change of heart Cures my infatuation.A broken heart, Provides the sparkFor my determination.
That is pretty reasonable as those things go. I've also used SlimFast with powdered milk added.
I drink water, and then eat a meal.
