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.

Unfortunately, I’m not a fan of grapes. So, I made the day 1 smoothie again. It was just as delicious as yesterday!
This was very refreshing and aot of flavor. Was yummy
Very good!
Yum!
Delicious Never made a smoothie with an orange and grapes-I loved it!
I used a very small navel orange from my tree, only 1/4 cup of water since my oranges are very juicy, homemade protein powder, and hemp hearts for a boost of phosphorus. It was sufficiently sweet, creamy, and flavorful, but I didn’t care for it. It might have been better without the protein powder. I will make it again, but without the powder, to see if this is the case.
rate a 10. I rather have a smoothie instead of juicing.
Fresh, liked this one, very easy to make
A delicious and refreshing green smoothie. The orange and grapes add a bright taste. Leaves me feeling light and energized.
Not good. Maybe I should not have added unpeeled orange, as smoothie was very bitter.
The green grapes add such a surprisingly delicious pop and flavor to this smoothie!
I wouldn’t have thought to put grapes in my green smoothie! For some reason I always think I need a banana or other “creamy” fruit to get a creamy well emulsified smoothie, but this was great without a banana. Thank you for getting me to eat more diversity in my smoothies! Delicious!
The citrus and pineapple really mask the spinach! A great smoothie for green-wary people.
Day 1 was great!!!! This one is for tomorrow, because i am at the other half of the world (Belgium) i get the mails in the afternoon. i’m a day behind
Creamy and delicious. The green grapes offer a bit of tangy flavor. Enjoyed this smoothie.
Yummy! And a great way to use up grapes that are getting a little old.
Not bad
I wasn’t sure about this one because of the grapes, but I was pleasantly surprised. It really is very good and I will have it again.
Delicious! You don’t even taste the spinach.
Flavor was great. Mine was very frothy. Greatly appreciate any tips on making it more smooth and less frothy!
