Notes
Notes:
This recipe makes two servings of 12-ounces each.
Brown rice syrup will create the most ideal blend of carbohydrates, but honey, maple syrup, or table sugar can all be substituted.
If your workout is longer than 75-90 minutes and is a training-specific workout, use the sweetener. If the workout is shorter than that, or if you are just going on a long leisurely walk/bike ride, skip the sweetener.
