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.
More Grape Smoothie Recipes
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.

Absolutely delicious & refreshing!!
I Love the day 2 smoothie. I will add this one to my collection. I added chia seeds.
This is delicious and so refreshing.
So refreshing! I used coconut milk to give it some creaminess and hemp seeds for protein.
Very refreshing. I used hemp seed to make it creamier. My little one gave it a 10 out of 5!
Delicious. I again used kale because that’s what I have in greens. Also added homemade protein powder.
Delicious as well!! I had to swap grapes for kiwi instead to make sure I don’t have too much fructose. I made it with water and tasted so good I made a second smoothie with coconut water for later today
Very nice refreshing smoothie. I used coconut water and added flax meal, hemp powder, tumeric and pepper.
Really enjoyed the addition of grapes (which was new for me) with the combination of pineapple and orange. Very refreshing.
Easy and delicious
Smoothie was refreshing I feel like it was missing something. I added chia seeds for some added protein.
This was so refreshing! Such a great recipe to add to my routine!
I’ve followed several of Jen’s recipes and I’ve loved them all. For today’s grape smoothie, I used red grapes and omitted the protein powder and it was delicious.
Another great smoothie, so refreshing. Would make it again for sure.
This is a favorite, my 13 yr old son absolutely loves this one. I just wish it had a little more body to it. Not quite as filling as others.
Delicious although I did not taste the grapes. It was not too sweet, which I prefer. I left the rind on the orange and went heavy on the greens. Definitely a keeper!
Absolutely delicious
Great flavor, if you want it more on the frozen side, freeze your fruits.
Did you use the whole orange? Rind and all?
Peel the orange, the rind will make it bitter. I also cut it in quarters so it fits in my blending cups.
Hi Lola! You need to peel the orange first, then you can throw it in!
Another refreshing green smoothie to start the day. I didn’t really notice the taste of the grapes, but it was a tasty smoothie, more liquidy than yesterdays but still good!
