Coffee can speed recovery: the Journal of Applied Physiology found that having caffeine and carbs at the same time helps to restock muscle glycogen stores faster than carbs alone. Natural cocoa powder provides anti-inflammatory antioxidants (and flavour), while almonds add texture and heart-healthy fats that help to keep you feeling full.
