Found this on Flickr. Simple and to the point, right? I assume you need to add some ice, but maybe not. Let me know if anyone tries this.

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups of grapes
  • 2 handfuls of spinach

That’s One Grape Smoothie

July 11, 2008 · Filed Under Blueberry Smoothies, Fruit Smoothies, Healthy Smoothies · Comment 

If you like grapes this smoothie will be quite the treat and for all the sweet flavor this is a very healthy smoothie recipe.

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups red seedless grapes
  • 1/3 cup boysenberries
  • 1/3 cup blueberries
  • 1/2 cup raspberries
  • 1/2 cup of grape juice (I prefer sparkling white grape juice.)
  • 2 cups of ice

If you can’t find one of the berries, just substitute more of the others so you have 1 full cup of nutrient-rich berries.

Grapefruit Smoothie

I personally don’t like grapefruit, but my wife loves them, so there must be others who would enjoy a grapefruit smoothie. While it is too tart for my tastes it is an ultra healthly smoothie recipe.

Smoothie Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups grapefruit juice, freshly squeezed is perferred
  • 3/4 cup of sliced pineapple
  • 1/4 cup of pineapple juice (this will sweeten it up nicely)
  • 1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
  • 2 cups ice
  • Optional: feel free to add a scoop of ice cream for an even sweeter taste.

Great Grape Smoothie

April 14, 2008 · Filed Under Dessert Smoothies, Fruit Smoothies, Raspberry Smoothies · Comment 

Grapes are available year round, but summer seedless grapes are the best. As spring approaches I’m looking forward to the delicious flavor a crips red grape contains. Try thi in a smoothie and reap all the health benefits the red grape has to offer. Grape smoothies don’t get the respect they deserve.

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups chilled (not quite frozen) red seeless grapes
  • 2/3 cup sherbet ice cream (raspberry or lime)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened grape juice
  • 1 to 3 cups of ice (start with one and add more as needed)

Blend this one ingredient at a time and add the ice cubes slowly until the thickness you want is desired.
