Ingredients You’ll Need
This smoothie keeps things simple with just five ingredients that work beautifully together. If you’re new to smoothies, check out my how to make a smoothie guide.
- Spinach: This is my favorite leafy green vegetable to use in smoothies. It’s high in fiber and nutrients and blends in completely without leaving any flavor.
- Water: A clean, neutral base that lets the fruit flavors shine.
- Orange: Brings natural sweetness and bright citrus flavor.
- Green grapes: Mild, juicy, and naturally sweet—great for smoothies.
- Frozen pineapple: Adds tropical flavor and creates a cold, creamy texture.

How to Make a Grape Smoothie
This green grape smoothie is quick to blend and beginner-friendly.
- Start by adding the spinach and water to your blender and blend until smooth. This helps prevent leafy chunks.
- Add the orange, grapes, and frozen pineapple, then blend again until creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash of water to reach your preferred consistency.
- Pour into a glass and enjoy right away for the freshest flavor.
Recipe Tips for Best Results
- Check grapes for seeds before blending (I always use seedless grapes).
- Use frozen pineapple to chill the smoothie without ice. You can cut pineapple and freeze it yourself.
- If your grapes aren’t very sweet, add an additional natural sweetener.
- A high-speed blender for smoothies creates the smoothest texture, but any blender will work with a little extra blending time.
Grape Smoothie vs. Grape Juice
When it comes to “drinking” grapes, blending wins every time. Juicing removes the fiber, which helps slow digestion, supports gut health, and keeps blood sugar steady. Smoothies keep the whole fruit intact, giving your body the full package—fiber, nutrients, and natural sweetness—while also helping you feel full longer. That’s why I reach for smoothies like this green grape blend instead of juice.

Grapes are often overlooked in smoothies, yet they add a light sweetness that pairs well with greens and creamy ingredients. If you enjoy this one, you might also love my peach spinach smoothie, almond butter smoothie (uses red grapes), or green tea smoothie—each one uses grapes a little differently for variety.

My new fave!
Love this smoothie
As I sit here drinking my Citrus Crush smoothie, I am thinking about how much I enjoy the smoothies with the grapes and oranges (now that I remember to remove the peel), to me they are very refreshing and clean tasting. Definitely a 5 star for me. I did not get to make my Green Veggie bowl yet so it is going to be today for supper, it sounds really good, I cannot wait.”
I had to do some substitutions based on what I had in the house. No grapes, so we used blueberries and strawberries. I added chia and tofu to make it a meal replacement and added vitamin c cubes for a boost. Delicious, refreshing, and filling. Yummy!
Love the taste of this one. Plan to continue drinking these!
Yum! Used pineapple coconut water and it’s yummy! Greenest one of the challenge! Had fun! Hope we can keep it going!
A very refreshing Smoothie
DEFINITELY my favorite! I’m starting over at day 1 and doing it again just for the HEATH of it!
One of my very favorites! The citrusy oranges and fresh pineapple make me think of summer. I like to freeze the grapes so I get a slushy smoothie that reminds me of slushees in the summer as a kid mmmm. So good
Very fresh and yummy. Will add this to my rotation for sure.
Tropical goodness.
I threw in half an avocado because I love how creamy it makes smoothies.
I subbed out water and used half coconut water and half Aloe Vera Juice.
And added in some MCT oil.
Fantastic! I boosted it with a Vitamin C Smoothie Cube so I really got the orange taste Rawking strong in this one. One of my favorites. I froze everything but the orange so it is just at the right amount of chill for me and I did not have to add any additional liquids. If I like coconut water, I could see this turning into a Tropical Paradise.
I used coconut water instead of plain water and this smoothie is wonderful
YUMMMMazing! LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS ONE! I boosted with Arugala, too 😉
So refreshing! Perfect blend of greens and fruit. I used coconut water for liquid for extra hydration. Great smoothie to start the day or would be a welcome afternoon energy boost.
This is my favorite! Way to go SGS you ended the 10 day challenge with the perfect orangey flavor. Thank you for helping me reset my diet! 😉
Love this one! I’ve never really used grapes in smoothies before. You’d figure it would be one of the first things to use considering many commercial juices have grape as a base and they are bountiful but, nope. I think I’ll make it a regular in my smoothies.
I really like this one. It is nice and refreshing.
I love the smoothies with water and grapes! The extra citrus and tropical flavor made this one perfect.
I really enjoyed Day 2 because I prefer berries in my smoothie. Day 3 was just as good as I occasionally like a sweeter smoothie.
