There will always be a little debate over the best drinks to follow up exercise with. The obvious advice is to know what your body needs and make sure that whatever your body wants is given to it.
A smoothie is actually a pretty good drink for most people. It gives a good general boost, and the fruit.vegetable base makes sure that you get any number of vitamins as well as protein and electrolytes.
Some people just require some electrolytes to bring them back online after exercise. Although some may think it's blood sugar that may be a problem, try something heavy with electrolytes first.
A drink with added protein in it is a good idea when you have sore muscles. This is not because it will help the soreness, but because it helps to rebuild muscles that were damaged and are causing the soreness.
A beer may not be a bad idea. It may sound ludicrous, but a beer is a great mix of vitamins and minerals,and actually hydrates better than water. Just remember to limit your intake to 500 mL (or just over 16 ounces) for men, and 250mL (or 8.5 ounces) for women for best health results.
