Generally anything with a 4-2-1 ratio of Carbs to Protein to Fat. Slim Fast works well - Some like Chocolate milk (1%) but it really doesn't matter. This gives your body the building blocks to recover and rebuild your leg muscles stronger to run faster. It is best to consume these calories 15-20 minutes post run.
If it was a really long run and I have severely torn my muscles down (To the Point the start using themselves as fuel) then I turn to something a little more high tech - For me this is for runs of 30+ miles - I have been using Endurox R4 recovery fuel.
I guess I am assuming that your goal is to get faster.
