Somebody (CorsairMac?) suggested Emergen-C awhile back. It has lots of good vitamins & other stuff. I've been using that and I really like it! It gives me a bit of a lift, but doesn't send me crashing down. I use it for spin classes, short rides and when I lift weights.
For really long rides, I'll combine Cytomax with some vanilla protein powder. The protein powder evens out the Cytomax. There has been some recent research that protein helps both endurance and recovery.

Gatorade lemon lime flavor - premixed.
On long rides I'll bring along a Red Bull (or two.) I've had good luck freezing them. I've only had 3 or so blow up in the freezer.

Blow up is really a misnomer. They actually just kind of ooze out of the can. A mess to clean up, but a small price to pay to have a cold Red Bull in the middle of a long ride on a hot day.
