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.

Surprisingly delicious!!
This was fun today. Didn’t have oranges but had tangerines and red grapes. Added some fresh ginger and at the very end playing with my food again. Topped with frozen cranberry and tangerine sauce
Yummmmm
Loved the taste of this smoothie! Everything that was added was simply delicious and provided me with just what I needed today; lots of energy!
Another delicious goodness today. With this, smoothies are going to be a part of my daily meals going forward. So, I added pea protein and flaxseed to mine as those were what I have at home. Had the smoothie as my breakfast. Yummy
tasted alot better than it smelled. I would have this again.
This is a new favorite!! The grapes add a little extra sweetness and it isn’t too thick since the grapes and orange are fresh, not frozen.
This Green Grape Smoothie is so delicious! I really like the fresh orange and fresh grapes!
Tasty! I used purple grapes because that’s what I had on hand and they worked great. I also added extra spinach. It’s a really simple, flexible recipe!
1st time trying this – nice and sweet – added the protein powder
I didn’t really pick up on the grape flavor but liked the overall taste!
I substituted some of the grapes for kale, like you suggested to reduce the sugar. Love the smoothie 🙂
I’m not a green grape fan so I should have tried it with red grapes.
Love grapes in smoothies, they are so sweet.
So good! I used red grapes because that’s what I had on hand. I read the comment about using kiwi. I’m going to have to try that!
I was hesitant about the grapes and oranges, worried about how the texture would be (skin and pith both make me nervous). But it blended well and the taste was great! Another win!
Delicious smoothie
I made this as breakfast. I replaced spinach with kale and added some lemon juice .
It tasted great.
Another great smoothie!
Yummy. Perfect combination
Refreshing , sweet
