2 summer drinks - One main ingredient

Some summer drinks are best kept simple, and these green grape smoothies are exactly that. I had two similar grape drinks on the blog, one with plenty of ginger, lemon and chia seeds, and another made with tender coconut water. Bringing them together makes it much easier to choose the version you feel like drinking.

Both begin with sweet, seedless green grapes and need only a few everyday ingredients. Make the ginger-mint smoothie when you want something bright and zesty, or choose the coconut-water smoothie for a lighter, delicately sweet drink. Neither version contains milk, yogurt or refined sugar.

Why you will love these grape smoothies

• Two variations in one place: Choose between a bold ginger-mint drink and a milder coconut-water smoothie.
• No milk or yogurt: Both versions are light, fruity and completely dairy-free.
• No refined sugar: Ripe grapes provide plenty of sweetness. Taste the drink before adding any optional sweetener.
• Quick to make: The blender does most of the work, while the chia seeds need only a short soak.
• Easy to adjust: Serve the drink unstrained for more body or strain it for a lighter, juice-like texture.

ingredients needed

• Seedless green grapes. we usually get good quality seedless grapes in the nearby grocery stores. Available all year along.
• chia seeds and lemon juice
• Mint and ginger
• Liquid of your choice, sweetner optional

Tips for the best smoothie

• Begin with cold ingredients. Chilled grapes and liquid make the drink refreshing without needing much ice.
• Taste the grapes first. If they are very tart, add a little maple syrup or agave after blending.
• Adjust the ginger. Use less for a mild drink or the full amount for a stronger ginger flavor.
• Do not over-thin it. Add extra water only a tablespoon at a time.
• Stir before serving. Chia seeds continue to thicken and may settle at the bottom.
• Choose the texture you enjoy. Keeping the grape skins gives the smoothie more body, straining produces a smoother, juice-like drink.
