“Um,” says asking friend, “Can I add Vodka?”

“To a recoothie?” I answer, “Absolutely!”

  1. Yummy! I made one after my progression run this morning.

    • Oh great! I am glad you liked it! And super good for you too! Unless you added the vodka, ha ha!

  2. Sounds yummy! Also, I just read about some research out of Oregon Health and Sciences University (go Portland!) claiming people who drank about 2 cups of tart cherry juice twice a day for seven days felt less muscle pain after a race than those who didn’t. So keep on drinking!

    • Wait, is that 4 cups of tart cherry juice a day? No wonder they don’t have muscle soreness, they’re not running, they are in the bathroom! Ha ha!

  3. We loooove the recoothie!
