"Winter in the Pacific Northwest usually means 3 things: wet, muddy, and just barely above freezing. When I get inside after a rainy training run, I'm craving a warm recovery beverage. Here's my favorite this season:

- Mixed with equal parts milk (or non-dairy alternative) and turmeric chai concentrate.
