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.

It tasted almost like yesterdays. I love the pineapple and orange taste together with the spinach. I. couldn’t. really taste the grapes. I could drink that smoothie everyday all day. Loved it
I don’t usually put grapes in smoothies, but I thought it was very refreshing for something different.
The grape smoothie was awesome. I used oat milk instead of water.
Just the right amount of sweetness. Great start to the day. Liked this one.
My husband says 3.5 but I say 4-4.5. I used red grapes – less fruit and more greens. I loved the flavor that the orange added to this.
Just the right amount of sweetness. Great start to the day.
Grapes! New to me smoothie add-in. Delicious
I enjoyed the yummy, unique, sweet flavor of this one. I think it’s been at least a year or more since I’ve had grapes. Will repeat this recipe for sure.
Great recipe! This has the perfect amount of grapes and orange to make it a super nice sweet flavor. I would definitely make this again!
Froze all ingredients so it was nicely chilled. There was no one ingredient that stood out to me. Overall it was OK.
This smoothie was delicious!! The combination of grapes, oranges , and pineapple with the spinach was amazing!!
I can dig it!
I enjoyed this Green Grape smoothie also. I will definitely make it again. I did add hemp protein powder, chia seeds and flax seeds.
I enjoyed this smoothie, but my kids weren’t huge fans (probably for the lack of banana, their all time favorite fruit lol!)
i made this smoothie as written and it was light, refreshing, and green. then i added protein powder and 1/4t each of wheat grass powder, kale powder, and spirulina powder. not surprisingly, it lost its light and refreshing taste, even though i added another 1/2c of grapes. i feel good about the nutrients, but i may make it as written again in the heat of the summer for a light and refreshing treat.
Much better flavor than the first day. Blended beautifully. I did use ice rather than water to help make a cooler drink.
Deliciously refreshing!
I was pleasantly surprised by the green grapes! I wasn’t sure with the whole orange and the grape peels but my blender did it and it was light and perfect for a morning start!
Great flavor and refreshing. Added some protein powder to give it a boost.
Another yummy combination
