This was great. I used a frozen banana so even with the full amount of orange juice it wasn't very thin at all. My orange juice was pretty sour but the natual sugar of the grapes and banana made it the perfect level of sweetness. I might try it with a bit of yogurt added sometime, but don't get me wrong it is great as is. Very simple and delicious.

I was a bit hesitant of trying this as I've never heard of grapes in a smoothie but I bit the bullet & gave it a go, I'm glad I did, this was really great, I used a little under a cup of frozen grapes and a small banana with the orange juice. A nice one I'm sure I'll be making again. Thanks!

Very nice smoothie. I usually use frozen bananas for my smoothies but I had a bag of frozen red grapes so I used those and a regular banana (was afraid it would be too thick if they were both frozen). I juiced two smallish oranges for fresh squeezed juice. My almost 5 year old and I enjoyed it together as the first thing we ate in 2007!

Delicious! I don't usually drink smoothies and I usually hate the taste. However, this smoothie was great! The taste was perfect, and although I was a little worried about the grape peels, they provided a nice texture. I'll definitely be making this again!

This was very good. I added some ice cream into mine to make it smoother and to tone down the acid in the orange juice. Very good!

I did not like this. I generally like my smoothies to be smooth, so I found the pieces of grape peel distasteful. I wasn't too fond of the flavor either, so sadly after a few sips I poured this out. It was an interesting idea though as I had never heard of putting grapes in a smoothie.

Sorry, but no one at our house liked this smoothie. It was way too thin. The small pieces of grape skins provide a unique texture that no one liked. I had to add frozen strawberries to get anyone to drink it. My families suggestions were to freeze the fruit before blending and peel the grapes. But if I had time to peel grapes, than I would just cook a healthy breakfast instead of throwing together a smoothie. Sorry, this one just wasn't for us.
