As someone else said, the carbs are cheap and protein is more expensive. So I wouldn’t bother trying to find another recovery drink, just add some of the sis drink mix ( 3 if you want it near 4:1) or eat some toast or any other food that you’d need.
That’s for you to decide, based on your training and life around it. As some other replies have said, importance of recovery drinks is a little inconclusive in recent years, if you can eat a good recovery meal after your ride I would say no, but if you are having a shower then straight away driving to work it could be beneficial.
Fwiw I train at a much higher level than most, not unusual to see training weeks of 20/25hours with efforts and sometimes multiple days of gym work, I don’t have recovery drinks and don’t feel it holds me back.
