Amazing Grape Smoothie Recipes

Easily add some antioxidants into your smoothie routine with a grape smoothie.

Grapes are packed with flavonoids, a phytonutrient. The flavonoids are what make the skin of the grapes darker in color. Two studied flavonoids are quercetin and resveratrol. Both of these compounds in grapes have shown that they may decrease the risk of heart disease.

Wine also contains these big health benefits. The darker the wine in color the more concentrated the flavonoids.

But we don’t have to drink wine to receive the benefits. We can go directly to the fresh source from where wine came from. GRAPES! And smoothies are a great way to get those nutrients into our bodies.

Smoothie Tips for Grapes

#1 - Grapes are extremely sweet. So you don’t need to add an excessive amount of sweetener to your smoothie. Believe me. I added sweetener to my first smoothie with grapes and I hardly could drink it down! Start with a small amount... Taste it... then add more sweetener if needed.

#2 - Grapes contain a lot of juice. Cut back on the liquid in order to have flavor packed healthy smoothie recipes!

#3 - I have not been able to find frozen grapes sold at the store. When grapes are in season and inexpensive... you could buy them in bulk, wash, and freeze for future smoothies.

So be creative and have fun with your grapes!

Something to keep in mind... Grape smoothies do not have an artificial grape soda flavor or color. These smoothies will not taste like grape soda. Grapes are great to pair with berries and tropical fruit.
