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.

Good morning! On day 2 and this smoothie was perfect for the morning. It was very good I added protein in mine.
Another great flavor combination. Can’t wait to try tomorrow’s!
Love it very sweet if I want something sweet this is something good for you
GREEN GRAPE SMOOTHIE: just made tasty I love the flavors that come out of it the rest is in the Refrigerator for me to take to work in the morning got to say great Recipe
grapes are the price of gold nuggets right now, where I live, so I used honeydew melon instead. Also added some Basil for a bit of a kick. It went down well, not overly sweet.
Awesome idea to swap for honeydew, Petra! I bet it turned out nicely!
This was one of my faves of the 10-Day challenge.
I use cilantro in the place of the spinach and it was very very good.
not a fan of adding grapes but good taste
So glad you gave it a try! 🙂
I enjoyed this one a lot! Added turmeric ginger smoothie cubes and pumpkin and hemp seeds. Great way to end the ten day smoothie challenge!
Perfect smoothie to finish the challenge. It was delicious!
Very tasty smoothie! My entire family loved it.
I love pineapples in smoothies! The combination of sweet grapes and oranges is very refreshing!
This is one of.my favorite smoothies! I meal prepped it so it was super easy to add water to Mason jar , throw the orange into blender and tada! Done! So delicious! Even my husband loved it.
Green grapes are not my fav in a smoothie because of the texture p. Otherwise yummy!
Yummy!! We replaced water with coconut water, and oranges with mangos, because we were out of oranges. We also added coconut milk smoothie cubes! It was be tasty!
I loved the tart sweetness from the mix of citrus and grapes. Definitely a favorite in my book!
This smoothie was alright, but I like pineapple and oranges so much, that I would prefer to just eat the fruit separately and have a spinach salad. I know that smoothies are an easy way to get multiple nutrients all at once, but there are other combinations that I prefer to this one for my smoothies.
This was a 10/10. Loved the citrus from the orange, loved the sweetness + tartness from the grapes, loved that it didn’t have (or need) banana! I added collagen powder and chia seeds, and gulped it down.
This one is sweet enough to use as an after-dinner treat!
Good combo of ingredients that taste good together. I add protein powder to my smoothies, and found that any recipes that call for just water never taste great. I think I would either omit the powder or add some type of plant based milk to help hide the flavor.
This was on the sweeter side and super thick. I added a little water and this went down well.
